The cool, dry season has arrived and if you get here early enough, you'll beat the
tourist crowds. The beaches are inviting and the landscape is lush.

One of Thailand's most beloved festivals, Loi Krathong is celebrated on the first full moon

with flowers and candles are sent adrift in the waterways.
Lopburi Monkey Festival
During the last week of November, the town's troublesome macaques get pampered with
