Wat Trapang Ngoen, imo it is the lesser visit Wat within the main zone of Sukhothai Historical Park because of its location and not well-known as Wat Mahathat and Wat Si Sawai. I visited this Wat during evening, I am the only one at the temple and I found it is very peaceful where you can listen to all the birdy chipping returning to their homes.
Wat Trapang Ngoen is located next to the lake and rubber trees. Views during sunset gave the different views compared to Wat Sa Si. You can enjoy the reflections of the opposite views at the lake.

It's nothing noteworthy as it is a smaller scale of Wat Mahathat but it is located in the central zone but so will pass it without remembering doing so. The cute little standing figure it wearing a cape which is a bit different but it's largely unremarkable.
OTHER TIPS FOR SUKHOTHAI
- Sunscreen is essential as you will almost certainly get burned without it
- Water is essential and isn’t actually readily locatable as there are few shops between the temples (A welcome change from other SE countries to be honest)
- Considering coming early in the day to avoid the various tourist buses. They will represent a problem mainly in the central zones as you won’t find anyone in the Western zones and few in the northern zone apart from at Wat Si Chum.
- Make sure you hire bikes; it’s too far to walk and they are good fun.
- Bring your camera and probably another battery as you will take plenty of pictures

The walking Buddha is an unusual statue here and again a very interesting place to walk round and good for photos.

The compound is quite big with the main temple on a land surrounded by moat and a hall on the island opposite. The lake named as Silver Lake is beautiful. The sitting Buddha with the lotus-bud style chedi are really nice.

Usually you get there by bycicle. Although it was February, it was really hot. The temple is very nice, but what makes it remarkable is its location near a beautiful lake.

It takes two seconds to see it but if you're in the area, it's worth stopping by to check it out. It's at the edge of the Historical Park.

Inside main complex, this temple looks pretty similar to others, same Buddha statues, pillars, no rooftop, etc. Still, interesting to hang around for few minutes.

It's a small wat and you could spend about 15 minutes or less here. It is still worth visiting and a great place to take photos. You'll see a large tree and a huge pond filled with water lilies just in front of the wat

There a loads of little wats dotted around in the Historical park, and this is one of them.
We did not linger long as there are plenty of others to see.
