Encyclopedic overview

Nong Khai province (Thai: หนองคาย, pronounced [nɔ̌ːŋ kʰāːj]; Northeastern Thai: หนองคาย, pronounced [nɔ̌ːŋ kʰa᷇ːj]) was formerly the northernmost of the northeastern (Isan) provinces (changwat) of Thailand until its eight eastern districts were split off to form Thailand's newest province, Bueng Kan province, in 2011. Nong Khai province lies in upper northeastern Thailand. Nearby provinces are (clockwise, from the east): Bueng Kan, Sakon Nakhon, Udon Thani, and Loei. To the north it borders Vientiane province, Vientiane Prefecture, and Bolikhamsai province of Laos.
