In Tambon Sema, 37 km. from the provincial capital, this is the site of an ancient city, evidenced by moats and earthen walls, which was built in the 7th century and flourished during the Dvaravati period, later coming under Khmer influence. In the area are ruins made of laterite and sandstone and many artefacts have been unearthed here, including a splendid reclining sandstone Buddha image that is now enshrined in Wat Thammachak Semaram.
