Sukhothai, Administrative province in northern Thailand.
This northern Thai province stretches across 6,671 square kilometers, bordering six other provinces including Phrae, Uttaradit, and Phitsanulok.
The province of Sukhothai emerged from the former capital of Thailand's first independent kingdom, established in 1238 after defeating the Khmer Empire.
The provincial seal displays King Ramkhamhaeng, who created the Thai script from Khmer characters that forms the foundation of modern Thai writing.
The province maintains transportation connections through highways, an airport, and public transit systems linking major cities and archaeological sites.
Sukhothai translates to 'dawn of happiness' in Sanskrit, reflecting its role as the birthplace of Thai independence and written language.
