Ang Thong, Administrative province in central Thailand.

Ang Thong Province spans 968 square kilometers of fertile lowlands between the Chao Phraya and Noi Rivers, maintaining extensive rice cultivation fields.

The province, formerly named Wiset Chai Chan, served as a strategic defense point during the Ayutthaya Kingdom's conflicts with Burma along the Noi River.

The region contains over 200 Buddhist temples, including Wat Khun Intapramun, which houses the substantial reclining Buddha statue Phra Sri Muang Thong.

The province divides into seven districts with 73 subdistricts, connecting to Bangkok through multiple transportation routes for convenient day trips.

The Ban Bangsadet court doll center, established under royal patronage, provides local residents with employment through traditional handicraft production.
