| Seal of the province | |The provincial seal shows the fort of Khai Bangrachan, a historical monument. When the Burmese attacked Ayutthaya in 1765, eleven villagers from Bangrachan fought the army when it stopped north of Ayutthaya. They managed to delay them for five months before they were finally defeated, soon thereafter Ayutthaya fell as well. Annually on February 4 a ceremony is held in rememberence of these local heroes. This story was also made into a movie in Thailand. Provincial tree is the Red Sandalwood Tree (Adenanthera pavonina). |
