⚲ NAKHON SI THAMMARAT

 

The ancient Capital of the Ligor Kingdom

 

Nakhon Si Thammarat Province is located along the Gulf of Thailand, offers quiet natural beaches, as well as two national parks which are home to an abundance of rare flowers, birds and wildlife and a capital city with an impressive history.
