Sa Kaeo (สระแก้ว)
Thai. ‘Crystal pool’.
Name of a province
(map)
and its capital city in East Thailand, 237 kms East of
Bangkok. The
province borders Cambodia and like
Prachinburi is scattered
with less important and smaller ruins from both the
Dvaravati
and
Khmer
period. Unfortunately it is of little interest to the accidental
visitor as most ruins are not restored and some are little more than
a few odd blocks of
laterite.
A gateway for trade with
Cambodia
at the border district of Aranya Prathet. The province has seven
amphur
and two
king
amphur. Also Sa Kaew and Sra
Kaeo (Sra Kaew). See also
Sa Kaeo data file.
