Old City Walls It was originally an earth wall just like the Sukhothai city wall. It is expected that it was built during the reign of King Bhumibol Adulyadej to prepare for the battle of King Tilokkarat of the Lanna Kingdom. His Highness asked to repair the city walls again in preparation for the Burmese war.
 
During the reign of King Narai the Great, the French craftsmen ordered the construction of a new wall by masonry to make it stronger. In the reign of King Buddha Yodfa Chulalok Please demolish the city walls and fortresses so that the Burmese who invade Thailand will not take a stronghold. The city wall that is clearly visible now is Wat Phothiyan, Wat Noi and Phitsanulok Provincial Police Station for the moat Found along the lines that are parallel to Phra Ruang Road. (after Pibulsongkram Rajabhat Institute).
