At the centre of town in front of city hall, this pleasant little park has several points of interest:* A bright yellow elaborately carved candle sculpture, completed in 2000, standing 22 m tall and dedicated to the king, showcases Isaan art styles and has become the symbol of the city. The candle is placed on a junk, with a garuda eagle at the bow and a naga serpent around it.* A statue of Phra Phatumvoraratsuriyawang commemorates the tersely-named founder of the town.* A Monument of Merit, erected by former World War II POWs to commemorate the kindness of the people of Ubon.
