Nakhon Pathom is possibly the most influencial town in Thailand, as it was here that Buddhism was first introduced to the country, the single most important aspect of the Thai culture.

Dating back to at least 150 BC, Nakhon Pathom is, unsurprisingly, one of the best places in Thailand to see ancient temples and historic monuments.

Nakhon Pathom is also home to Wat Phra Pathom, the largest Buddhist shrine in the world...!
