Introducing Ubon Ratchathani Province
This varied province, famous across Thailand for its forest wats, pushes down into the tri-border region where Laos, Thailand and Cambodia come together. To bolster the region’s tourist profile TAT has labelled this the ‘Emerald Triangle’ in recognition of its magnificent green landscapes and drawing obvious – but rather hopeful – parallels with northern Thailand’s ‘Golden Triangle’. However successful this may be, Ubon remains one of the region’s more attractive cities, while the surrounding countryside has plenty to entertain the rustic rover. Phu Chong Nayoi and Pha Taem National Parks are two of Isan’s remotest corners.
