Geographically located in the Lower
North on the bank of the Ping River, Kamphaeng Phet is 358 kilometres
from Bangkok. To its East are riverine flatlands while the western
areas are  made up
of high mountains lush with fertile forests where a number of national
parks have been established.
Areas along the river bank at present-day Mueang district used
to host several ancient towns which had played a major role as strategic
front-line frontiers since Sukhothai was the kingdom's capital down
through the times of Ayutthaya and early Rattanakosin (Bangkok)
eras. In fact, the name Kamphaeng Phet actually means as strong
as walls or forts make of diamonds.
