An old and important community
of Northern Thailand, Phrae was founded after Chiang Mai had
been established as the capital of the Lanna Thai kingdom.
With one of the largest reserves of teak forests in the country,
it is located on the banks of the Yom River, 555 kilometres
from Bangkok.
Covering an area about 6, 538 square kilometres and surrounded
on all sides by mountains with level plains in the middle,
Phrae is administratively divided into the following districts:
Muang, Sung Men, Den Chai, Long, Wang Chin, Song, Rong Kwang
and Nong Muang Khai.
