"Tha Nang": Traces of Civilization and the Royal Pier of Hariphunchai Speaking of important strategic points in the old city of Lamphun that are connected to the riverside lifestyle of the Kuang River, "Tha Nang" or "Tha Nang Gate" is a place with magic and historical significance. According to legend, this area used to be a pier used to receive Queen Chama Thewi when she traveled by waterway from Lopburi to rule Hariphunchai.
The charm of the old pier today: Tha Nang is located on the east side of the ancient city walls. Today, there are still traces of the city gate and old brick walls to be seen. The atmosphere around Tha Nang in the afternoon to evening is quiet, shaded by large trees that spread their branches over the Kuang River, making it ideal for tourists who like to explore the old city and photograph ancient architecture that blends in with the current way of life.
Recommended activities on holidays:
Walk along the city walls: Study the construction of the ancient city gates that still have archaeological evidence remaining.
Relax by the Kuang River: Sit and enjoy the cool breeze, admiring the view of the river that flows through the old city, which in the past was the main transportation route.

Visiting Tha Nang is not just about seeing the old city gate, but it is about standing at the point where the history of Lamphun began. Anyone who wants to experience the classic atmosphere of Hariphunchai in depth must try to check in here once.
