Nang Rong

A not-so-large stop along the main road from Bangkok to the Isaan region of North West Thailand, Nang Rong is a good base to explore various ruins in the surrounding region. Of particular note is Phanom Rung, a beautifully restored Khmer temple.

Things to Do

  • Meuang Tam

    Location: 
    Nang Rong
    Price: 
    100 baht (foreigner)

    Although not worth a trip of it's own, Meuang Tam is worth adding on to a trip to Phanom Rung. Combination tickets for both can be bought for 150 baht (for foreigners), or it's 100 baht for Meuang Tam itself.

    Phanom Rung is probably the most impressive Khmer temple I've seen outside of Anghor Wat. Situated South East of Nang Rong, on top of a (small) extinct volcano, Phanom Rung has great views over the surrounding countryside and beautifully restored Khmer architecture.

    Although it's not really such an exciting destination, the ride here is kind of fun. The road here was the second most potholed road that I've ever ridden (that honour belonging to a certain road up on the Bolaven Plateau in Southern Laos), but I found an easier way back.
