Chanthaburi, Province in eastern Thailand.

The region encompasses mountain ranges, forested areas, and coastal plains along the Gulf of Thailand, with Khao Soi Dao peak reaching 1,675 meters.

French colonial forces maintained control of Chanthaburi from 1893 to 1905 during territorial disputes between Thailand and Cambodia regarding border regions.

The indigenous Chong people maintain their traditional ways in the districts of Khao Khitchakut, Pong Nam Ron, and Makham within the province.

The province connects to major cities through Highway 3, while Trat Airport serves as the primary air transportation hub for the region.

The provincial seal displays a moon with a rabbit inside, representing both peace and Thai folklore elements through its symbolic design.
