Nakhon Ratchasima Attractions

 
Nakhon Ratchasima

The town of Nakhon Ratchasima, once also called Khorat, lies 220 km (137 mi.) north of Bangkok on the south-west edge of the Khorat Plateau. During recent decades it has become a center of Thailand's most structurally weak region; as railway lines from the north and the east meet here, Nakhon Ratchasima is of importance for the delivery of supplies to the north-east (which accounts for a third of Thailand's area). A good two-thirds of the region's population (approximately 2.2 million) live in the area around Nakhon Ratchasima, including many Laotians and Cambodians.
