Cartography for Cultural Tourism Attractions Around Ban Chiang Archaeological Site, Udon Thani, Thailand

A comprehensive mapping of cultural tourism attractions around the Ban Chiang Archaeological Site, Thailand, reveals four distinct categories: museums, religious sites, accommodations (homestays), and restaurants/street food. These attractions are primarily concentrated in communities surrounding the site, offering valuable insights for spatial planning and tourism development. The study employed field surveys, GPS coordinate recording, and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to analyze the distribution and potential of these cultural assets. This cartographic approach not only aids local residents in planning and improving tourism infrastructure but also fosters community pride, economic growth, and sustainable tourism practices.
