Reflecting the province’s mixed heritage, a leafy patch of Buriram’s old town features a large Chinese shrine situated across the street from the Thai-style Wat Klang and next to the large City Pillar shrine, which was built to mimic a Khmer-style prang. While most of Buriram town consists of dull concrete shophouses, the City Pillar area stretches beyond the moat and makes for a mildly pleasant stroll past clusters of old wooden houses.
