Khon Kaen City
Khon Kaen city is the provincial capital and the fourth-largest city in Thailand, serving as the commercial, medical, and transport hub of the mid-northeastern region. It lies on the Khorat Plateau at an elevation of approximately 187 metres, bisected by the Friendship Highway linking Bangkok to the Thai-Lao border.
The city municipality has a registered population of around 114,000, while the broader Mueang Khon Kaen district urban area reaches approximately 417,000 residents. Established formally in 1935, Khon Kaen is one of the 'big four' Isan cities alongside Udon Thani, Nakhon Ratchasima, and Ubon Ratchathani. The scenic Bueng Kaen Nakhon lake sits at the city's centre, ringed by parkland and the landmark Phra Mahathat Kaen Nakhon stupa standing 80 metres tall. Khon Kaen International Airport connects the city directly to Bangkok and regional destinations, and the city hosts major annual events including the Silk and Phuk Siaw Festival every November.
