Information
Nakhon Ratchasima, or “Khorat,” is a large province
on the northeastern plateau and is like the gateway to other provinces
in the Northeast. It is 259 kilometres from Bangkok and has an area
of around 20,494 square kilometres. The province is rich in Khmer
culture and has a long history. It is famous for the highly revered
Khun Ying Mo (Ya Mo) statue in the middle of town. It also has beautiful
nature, with many forests, mountains, waterfalls, and reservoirs.
Furthermore, it is well known for a variety of quality handicrafts
that visitors can choose from, particularly the popular clay pottery
products of Dan Kwian.
Nakhon Ratchasima used to be the site of several ancient prehistoric
communities that continued to grow when the Dvaravati culture came
in and later when the Khmer culture replaced it. An important prehistoric
site is Ban Prasat. Traces of Dvaravati and Khmer cultures are scattered
throughout the province, particularly at Amphoe Sung Noen and Amphoe
Phimai. Nakhon Ratchasima has been a key city since ancient times
as an administration centre. It was responsible for many northeastern
cities in the past. Even now, its status has remained unchanged
in that it is the Northeast’s main transportation hub and
economic centre.
