It is known as the legendary Dragon’s Belly of the Nan River due to its history of thriving trade for over a century. The community is distinguished by its old wooden row houses, known as the “Ban Kao Wang Klom” or the “Community Information Center,” which provides information and highlights various attractions within the Wang Krot community, including local food and culture. Additionally, the Wang Krot Shrine serves as the spiritual center for the residents.
