Kamphaeng Phet
กำแพงเพชร
Kamphaeng Phet's UNESCO-listed historical park preserves the ruins of a fortified Sukhothai-era city, with laterite walls and towering Buddha images surrounded by ancient trees. Less visited than its more famous neighbour Sukhothai, the park offers an atmospheric and crowd-free exploration of Thailand's medieval heritage. The province is also a major producer of bananas and chillies, and the Khlong Lan National Park features one of central Thailand's most impressive waterfalls.
