Introduction

This is the historical administrative center of Lanta Island, located on the east coast of Ko Lanta Yai. It used to be a hub for the trade routes of Chinese and Arab merchants, and there are still many old and elegant double-storey shops gathered here. Stepping into this ancient city area with a history of hundreds of years, it feels like traveling back to an even older era of the island.
