ANG THONG

Astride the Chao Phrava River, Ang Thong was long dominated by its involvement with neighbouring Ayutthaya. There are many temples of note. Wat Chaiyo Worawihan is home to a large seated Buddha image, with a sizeable collection of sacred amulets popular amongst collectors.

Wat Phra Buddha Saiyat Pha Mok has an old reclining Buddha where King Naresuan paid homage prior to tackling the invading Burmese. Wat Sa Kaeo is also part orphanage and part royal weaving project, displaying hand-made textiles, clothes and household wares

Handicraft villages dot the province, with the most notable being Bang Phae for its famous drums, and Bang Sadet, which makes miniature dolls under a royal project set up by Her Majesty the Queen.
