Phang_Nga

The province of Phang Nga is a land rich with idyllic islands and a hinterland comprising beautiful scenery. The majority of the area is mountainous with very little basin area. Phang Nga covers an area of over 4,000 square kilometers, over half of which is made up of mangrove and evergreen forest. Phang Nga is roughly 800 km from Bangkok, bordering on Ranong to the north, Phuket to the south, Krabi and Surat Thani to the east, and the Indian Ocean to the west. The province is administratively divided into eight Amphoes: Muang, Kapong, Khura Buri, Takua Pa, Takua Thung, Thai Muang, Thap Put and Ko Yao.

The provincial capital of Phang Nga is a small town, set amidst spectacular limestone crags. The limestone geology of the area has forged many natural attractions; sheer cliffs, fascinating rock formations and plenty of caves for the visitor to explore. Around the mangrove-fringed bay is a scattering of striking limestone karsts protruding from the sea, surrounded with an abundance of coral reefs below the clear waters. A classic example of the limestone karsts can be found at the famous Koh Phing Kan or 'James Bond Island', with its famous over-hanging rock, from the movie "The Man With the Golden Gun".
