UTTARADIT

Originally a port on the River Nan, Uttaradit is a pretty provincial town, whose main temple, Wat Tha Thanon, houses the very sacred Luang Pho Phet, cast during the Chiang Saen period. Wat Thamma Thipatai has huge intricately carved wooden doors, over two metres wide and five metres high.

Lap Lae District is famous for its Teen-Jog design handwoven fabric, while the biggest teak tree in the world can be found Nam Pat District.
