Ratchasima 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.
