Uthai Thani is located in the lower part of northern Thailand. Most of
the province consists of forests and high mountains.
Uthai Thani Town is a quiet peaceful town and has some interesting attractions
such as Wat Sangkhat Rattanakhiri, at the foot of the Sakaekrang hill at the end
of Tha Chang Road, houses a large, Sukhothai-style, bronze Buddha statue in the
Mara Vichaya posture, believed to have been installed at the temple since the
reign of King Rama I.
Uthai Thani is a province abundant in natural resources, such as forests and
wildlife. Huai Kha Khaeng Wildlife Reserve here was proclaimed a Nautral World
Heritage Site on 13 December 1991. The reserve has jungles, forests, plains,
many streams, and most importantly, a number of rare and endangered animals. |
