Nakorn Pathom is 58km west of Bangkok and home to the highly revered Phra Pathom Chedi. The origins of this province are shrouded in mystery, but it is certainly one of the most ancient cities in Thailand, which has been a center of the Dvaravati civilisation. Over 2,000 years ago, a Buddhist missionary from India was sent to introduce Buddhism and its philosophy to a land called Suwannaphum, which had Nakhon Pathom as its capital. Phra Pathom Chedi was the important structure of the kingdom. The prosperous city was abandoned in the 12th century. A new community settled down after the renovation of Phra Pathom Chedi was completed in the reign of King Rama V of Bangkok period. This great monument is one of the holiest Buddhist monuments in the world.
