Lopburi
Lopburi is a historic Thai town northeast of Bangkok, known for its concentration of ancient monuments and ruins spread across a compact centre. The provincial capital sits within reach of Khao Chan Daeng mountain and is surrounded by military zones that give the town an unusual dual character. A pocket-sized-business hub and education centre, it draws independent travellers exploring the Chao Phraya Basin region without the crowds of larger heritage destinations.
