About Phitsanulok

Phitsanulok is a large historic town in northern Thailand, just 4 hours by train from Bangkok. Discover the good reasons to go there!

In the era of mass tourism, few destinations have managed to maintain perfect authenticity. This is not the case with Phitsanulok, a former capital of the kingdom of Siam, bordering Sukhothai and Laos. Although the opening of an international airport has boosted tourist numbers, the birthplace of King Naresuan the Great has remained true to itself: a melting pot of Buddhist temples, a high place of pilgrimage for souls in search of illumination, a major natural resource area. The Chinnarat Buddha statue is just the icing on the cake among the attractions of this timeless city. . Be sure to stop by Phitsanulok for an off-the-beaten-track trip to northern Thailand.
