Phitsanulok, Administrative province in central Thailand
Phitsanulok province spans 10,815 square kilometers between the Nan River and Kwai Noi River, containing five national parks and numerous wildlife sanctuaries.
The province evolved from ancient city-states like Song Khwae in the 11th century and later became a strategic center during both Sukhothai and Ayutthaya kingdoms.
The Wat Phra Si Rattana Mahathat temple houses the Phra Buddha Chinnarat statue, displaying exceptional Thai Buddhist craftsmanship and religious significance.
The province maintains strong transportation connections through highways, railways, and Phitsanulok Airport, facilitating travel between Bangkok and northern regions.
The Buranathai Buddha Foundry in Phitsanulok continues the centuries-old tradition of casting bronze Buddha images using traditional metalworking techniques.
