- Trivia
- the city of Loei was formed in 1853 by King Mongkut (Rama IV).
With its low mountains, flowing waterfalls and immense areas of open, fertile land-forming plains that hold the province's main town and the River Loei, this is a place of great natural beauty, containing a wide range of both natural and cultural attractions.
The centrally located night market is a good place to pick up a bargain, engage in some colorful local banter and find a cheap and tasty meal. If you are in Loei city at the end of January, don't miss the Cotton Blossom Festival, where floats are decorated with cotton and there are colorful parades through the streets.
