This "temple of the seven rows of stupas" is one of the largest sites in the inner city of Si Satchanalai. It consists of a large main chedi, surrounded by 27 smaller ones. When the temple was first re-discovered by the local villagers, they uncovered many of the stupas, arranged in 7 rows, giving the temple it's name. It later turned out there were more chedis, so there are actually nine rows. In addition to the monuments, there were five large mondops, two prayer halls and an ordination hall.

One of the most photographed features of the temple is an image of the Buddha sitting on a coiled serpent, found on the center stupa at the northwestern end of the temple. There are traces of mural paintings in the second chedi from west corner.
The temple was probably built in the late fourteenth century. Some believe that it may enshrine the ashes of the Sukhothai royal family.
