The East zone is located outside of the walled town near the Kamphaeng Hak gate in the East wall, along the road to new Sukhothai town.
The best known monuments in the East zone are the Wat Chedi Sung and the Wat Chang Lom, a Singhalese style chedi with sculptings of elephants surrounding its base.
The large temple is built on a square area surrounded by a 600 meter long moat, its buildings aligned on an East-West axis. Since its structures were built during different periods, the temple shows the evolution in Sukhothai architecture and art. It contains examples of different architectural styles such as Khmer, Sukhothai and Ayutthaya.
