The southern border of Pathumthani is not far from the northern perimeter of Don Mueang Airport. Pathumthani has been settled for a long period. The first significant village was established in 1659 when a large group of Mon people from Burma were given permission by the King of Ayutthaya to settle in the area. Further royal patronage saw the village develop into a town and then expand into a province in its own right."}, {"text_idx": "#000118", "text": "Most of the visitors who come to Pathumthani are Thai people visiting the province\u2019s large shopping zone at Rangsit Future Park, or Dream World, a Disney style amusement park, or one of the province\u2019s two major museums, the National Science Museum and the National Geological Museum. The massive Dhammakaya Temple also attracts large number of visitors. Pathumthani does, however, offer more low ley attractions that might appeal more to adventurous foreign visitors. Away from Rangsit, Pathumthani is largely rural with large open fields where good quality fruit and vergatable are grown and birdlife in particular flourishes. Pathumthani also has a series of very old temples located on the banks of the Chao Phraya River, such as Wat Hong Pathummawat and Wat Chedi Thong, which are worth visiting. If you have your own transport then spending a day travelling along the river visiting these temples would be an interesting possibility. For vintage shopping, and old style food, then a trip to Khlong Rahaeng Old Market is recommended. Khlong Rahaeng Old Market is a long running canalside market located within historic woooden buildings."}]
