Information
Since the 10th century, Ubon Ratchathani, or simply Ubon, was
part of the Khmer Empire until the Ayutthaya Kingdom later conquered
it. Towards the end of the 18th century, Laotians immigrated
to the northern banks of the Mun River and founded the provincial
capital. The Laotian influence is evident in the architectural
structures of some of the city’s religious buildings.
During the Vietnam War, Ubon encountered an expansive growth
due to its proximity to an American air base.
Today, the province is the largest and one of the most important
provinces in northeastern Thailand. It is a major tourist
attraction of the lower I-San located 629 kilometres from
Bangkok. Due to the large number of fascinating temples dotting
the city, Ubon is a place of pilgrimage at the beginning of
Buddhist Lent. Aside from the numerous attraction sites, festivals
and holidays are celebrated with a unique Ubon flair. The
province borders the Mekong River in the east and features
superb scenic view of Cambodia.
