Ang Thong, a province, which is luxurious of native handicraft
like, molded court dolls, firebrick, and wickerwork. It is also
the origination of Li Ke, the native folk song, hometown of Nai
Dok and Nai Thongkaeo, the two heroes during Bang Rachan Battle.
Ang Thong is also abundant with more than 200 clean, magnificent,
and interesting temples, most appropriate for Thai chronological
study.
Ang Thong, originally known as Mueang Wiset Chai Chan, is located
on the Noi River and the low-lying land of Chao Phraya River. It
is an essential frontier outpost of Ayutthaya when fighting with
the Burmese. As appeared in several parts of Ayutthaya chronicles,
especially, prior to the defeat of Ayutthaya in 1767, the Burmese
encamped at Mueang Wiset Chai Chan to attack Ayutthaya causing Bang
Rachan Battle, a noted event recorded in Thai history. Later during
the Thonburi era, Mueang Wiset Chai Chan was moved to a new site
on the left bank of the Chao Phraya River at Ban Bangkaeo and was
named Ang Thong since its location was a fertile basin similar to
a water and rice bowl of the country.
Ang Thong is a small province located at the lower part of central
Thailand as large as 968 square kilometers. Topographically, almost
all of the Ang Thong area is low plain with two important rivers
crossing the province, i.e. Noi River and Chao Phraya River. Ang
Thong is administratively divided into 7 Amphoes: Amphoe Mueang
Ang Thong, Amphoe Wiset Chai Chan, Amphoe Sawaeng Ha, Amphoe Pa
Mok, Amphoe Pho Thong, Amphoe Chaiyo, and Amphoe Samko. Borders
are Sing Buri to the north, Ayutthaya to the south, Ayutthaya and
Lop Buri to the east and Suphan Buri to the west.
