Ping River

The Ping River is in the northwestern part of Thailand. It is the right tributary of the largest river and begins in the rocks of the Tanentaunji mountain range, in its northeastern part. Going down the mountain rapids, the river then perfectly spills over the wide expanses of the Menam lowland. The length of the river is 569 kilometers.

There are several major cities on the Ping River.

The river is full in April-November. This is when the monsoon rains.

River water is used in growing rice crops.

Near the river is the Ping National Park.
