About Nakhon Ratchasima (Korat)
Nakhon Ratchasima, also called Korat, is one of the largest provinces in Thailand, in the north-east, in the Isan region. It covers about 20,500 km2 on a high plateau and is divided into six areas with temples, parks, waterfalls and caves. The city of the same name is the administrative, economic and transport centre of the region.
Travellers come for the ancient Khmer culture and for nature: mountains, waterfalls, jungle and lakes. Many monuments were found around Phimai and Sung Noen, which are considered the cradle of the province. The city has about 135,000 people and is the fifth largest in Thailand. It stands about 200 metres above sea level, on a branch of the Mun River.
The first settlements here are from the 6th century. In 1656 the city was completed as a frontier in the east of Siam and later became the gateway to Isan. During the Vietnam War an American base nearby gave a push to bars, restaurants and shops. Today the city has no sea and few sights within it, and the trips usually go out to the Khmer sites and the nature of the province.

The driver comes to the address you give in Bangkok, at an airport or in Pattaya, and nobody else rides with you. The car can wait while you see the place, and the waiting time is agreed in advance. For a group of more than four passengers see the Hyundai H1 and the Commuter.
