Phi Phi Information
This seaside province is located in the Andaman Sea. The province
is full of white sandy beaches, crystal clear seawater, beautiful
islands, verdant forest with caves, and waterfalls, including
more than 100 offshore islands.
Krabi is located 814 kilometres from Bangkok, covering an area
of 4,708 square kilometres. From archaeological discoveries,
it is believed that Krabi was one of the oldest communities
in Thailand dating from the prehistoric period. It is also believed
that Krabi was once the town of Ban Thai Samo, one of 12 royal
cities that used a monkey as the town symbol. Krabi was a dependency
town of the Nakhon Si Thammarat Kingdom. Another legend indicates
that the town may have taken its name after the meaning of Krabi,
which means sword. This may have stemmed from a legend that
says an ancient sword was unearthed prior to the city’s
founding. Later, the sword became a symbol of Krabi.
The province consists of mountains, hills, plains, and mangrove
forests, including more than 130 large and small islands.
Krabi town has a 5-metre-long river, which flows through town
and ends at the Andaman Sea in Tambon Pak Nam. There are several
canals in Krabi including Khlong Pakasai , Khlong Krabi Yai
and Khlong Krabi Noi, all of them originate from Phanom Bencha
mountain range, the highest mountain range in Krabi.
Krabi is administratively divided into 8 Amphoes (districts):
Amphoe Mueang, Khao Phanom, Khlong Thom, Plai Phraya, Ko Lanta,
Ao Luek, Lam Thap, and Nuea Khlong.
