Despite its century-long history, Krabi’s first urban development experience took place only a few decades ago. Initially, the development was clustered around the province’s famous islands while there were only a few tourists who traveled to Krabi’s city center. The urban reorganization and improvement of Krabi’s town area and landscape architecture have taken place with a proper environmental management system implemented to accommodate urban growth for downtown Krabi to serve as the province’s living room.
