Uthaithani: see floating villages

Uthaithani Province is popular for its floating villages. And this is not a staging for tourists, these are real villages on the rivers where people live. By the way, you can combine the inspection of villages with another pleasant pastime: go on a river cruise or enjoy rafting.

Nakhon Sawan: Gourmet

Nakhon Sawan is located at the confluence of two rivers, so there is an abundance of fresh fish.

It is also a great place to enjoy Wat Khirivong Temple and get to know the May Wong National Park, where tigers live.
