Kranuan

Kranuan is an administrative district in Khon Kaen Province in northeastern Thailand, comprising nine subdistricts and around 81 villages. The area spans approximately 322 square kilometers and serves roughly 77,000 residents through local administrative offices.

Kranuan was separated from Nam Phong district in 1948 and received official recognition as a complete administrative district in 1958. This administrative change shaped the region's development for decades.

The district maintains agricultural traditions through seasonal festivals and community gatherings that connect residents and strengthen local bonds.

The area sits at approximately 223 meters elevation and provides good access to administrative services through nine local administrative organizations. Visitors will encounter typical rural structures and agricultural areas that shape daily life.

The district sits at a geographical border between several provinces and shares boundaries with territories from both Khon Kaen and Udon Thani. This position makes it an intersection of different regional influences.
