Lopburi ProvinceThe historical town of Lopburi is located about 154 km to the north of Bangkok. The town has had a tumultuous past and has been ruled over by several kingdoms over the centuries. The ruins of Lopburi covers a period of over 1200 years, indicating the significant role it has played to many rulers over the centuries. Lopburi first developed into a major town during the Dvaravati Period.
The first settlers of the town were believed to be the animist Lawa, who were related to the Mons, when it was known as Lavo. In 950 the town came under the control of the expanding Khmers who made it their provincial capital. The Khmer style of Mahayana Buddhist inspired art and architecture was heavily incorporated in the construction of many of the town's buildings; hence it is commonly referred to as 'Lopburi' style.
