Located
on the eastern border of Thailand, Sa Kaeo is a popular trading center
province and had been a district of the Prachin Buri Province until
its official recognition as a province in December 1993.
In the past, Sa Kaeo was a major civilized community.
Its long history had dated back to the Suwannaphum and Dvaravati
Periods. Well-known archeological sites of Khmer arts and stone inscriptions
are outstanding examples of this ancient civilization.
Highlands and mountains are in the north where Pang
Sida National Park is located, while the south is covered with wavy
plains and hills. There are also a number of evergreen forests along
the Chanthaburi mountain range.
