Loei (Thai: เลย) Province is located in Thailand's upper North-East. Neighboring provinces are (from east clockwise) Nong Khai, Udon Thani, Nongbua Lamphu, Khon Kaen, Phetchabun, Phitsanulok. In the north it borders Xaignabouli and Vientiane Provinces of Laos.<br/><br/> The province is covered with low mountains, while the capital Loei is located in a fertile basin. The Loei River, which flows through the province, is a tributary of the Mekong which, together with the smaller Hueang River, forms the northern boundary of the province with neighboring Laos.<br/><br/> Although temperatures in the hot season (April-May) can be more than 40 degrees Celsius, the province is the only one in Thailand where temperatures regularly drops below freezing at night in the cold season (December-January).<br/><br/> Loei is rich in national parks, including especially Phu Kradung, Phu Ruea, Phu Suan Sai (also known as Na Haeo) and Phu Luang Wildlife Sanctuary.<br/><br/> In 1853 King Mongkut (Rama IV) founded the city of Loei to administer the increasing population in what was then a remote area. In 1907 the province was created by King Chulalongkorn (Rama V). The province is also famous for the Phi Ta Khon festival held at Dansai during the 6th lunar month to make merit and honour the spirits of the ancestors - a colourful mix of Buddhism and spirit worship.<br/><br/> The symbol of the province is the stupa (chedi) at Phra That Si Song Rak in Dan Sai, which was built in 1560 by King Maha Chakrapat of Ayutthaya and King Chai Chetha of Lan Xang as a symbol of friendship between the Siamese and Lao kingdoms.

Ko Phangan is 15 km (9.5 miles) north of Ko Samui, and, at 168 sq km (65 sq miles) about two-thirds of its size. The island has the same tropical combination of white, sandy beaches, accessible coral reefs and rugged, jungled interior.<br/><br/> Once the haunt of budget travelers escaping from more expensive Ko Samui, it is today slowly moving more upmarket. Still, the island remains much less developed for international tourism than Ko Samui, due in part to its isolation and in part to its poor infrastructural system. The roads, in particular, remain poor, with many places along the coast only accessible by sea or by pickup truck or motorbike along badly maintained trails.
Rama V's pavilion was built in 1890. The king visited the caves on a number of occasions while travelling between Bangkok and Nakhon Si Thammarat.<br/><br/> Khao Sam Roi Yot became Thailand’s first coastal National Park in 1996. It covers an area of approximately 100 square kilometers (40 square miles) including steep limestone mountains riddled in places with caves, marshes, mangrove swamps, sandy beaches and shallow sea waters along the coast.<br/><br/> The name sam roi yot means ‘three hundred peaks’ and this refers directly to the many limestone outcrops and peaks that characterize the park, rising dramatically to heights of more than 650 meters (2,150 feet).<br/><br/> Much of the reserve is a home and refuge for a wide range of wildlife, including serow, barking deer, Malayan pangolin, palm civet, fishing cat, Malayan porcupine, Javan mongoose, Siamese hare and grey-bellied squirrels. Some of the park’s most charming denizens include the dusky langur and the slow loris, who share the environment with other better-known primates like the crab-eating macaque.<br/><br/> There are more than 300 species of bird, while dolphins can sometimes be seen in the surrounding waters.
