Phra That Sri Song Rak 's the holy stupa of Loei people which was built in Ayutthaya period as a friendship sign between Ayutthaya Kingdom and Lanxang Kingdom. The stupa or so called Phra That was built in Lanxang or Laos style. Inside houses Buddha images and holy books. Everyyear, local always held a celebration by making bamboo to be a pyramidal shape and decorated with wax to holy the stupa.
Temple prohibition:
1. Don't bring red stuffs or even red flower inside.
2. Don't wear red clothes to this temple. Becuase the temple was built in friendship meaning, red means blood and violence.
3. Don't bring umbrella, hat and shoe upstair.
4. Don't bring children under 3 years old upstair.

Address: Road no.2014
