Kamphaeng Phet, Administrative province in central Thailand.
The province covers 8,607 square kilometers along the Ping River, with plains in the east and mountains of the Dawna Range in the west.
During the 14th century, Kamphaeng Phet served as a strategic defense point for both the Sukhothai and Ayutthaya kingdoms under its former name Chakangrao.
The provincial emblem displays protective walls with diamond symbols, while the areca nut palm represents the official provincial tree of the region.
The territory contains eleven administrative districts, divided into 78 sub-districts and 823 villages, supporting a population of more than 700,000 residents.
The region produces kluai khai bananas, small aromatic fruits that generate annual exports worth 200 million baht from local plantations.
