'''Northern Thailand''', or more specifically '''[[Lan Na|Lanna]]''', is a region of Thailand. It is geographically characterized by several mountain ranges, which continue from the [[Shan Hills]] in bordering [[Myanmar]] to [[Laos]], and the river valleys that cut through them. Like most of [[Thailand]], it has a [[tropical savanna climate]], but its relatively high elevation and latitude contribute to more pronounced seasonal temperature variation, with cooler winters than the other regions. 

Historically, northern Thailand has been linked to the [[Haripuñjaya|Hariphunchai Kingdom]], which emerged as a powerful state in the region in the 7th century. This kingdom was related to the [[Dvaravati]] that existed from the 6th to 11th centuries. The Hariphunchai culture later influenced the development of the [[Lanna Kingdom]], which emerged in the 13th century and lasted until the 18th century.<ref>{{citation|last1=Tan |first1=Heidi |url=https://www.academia.edu/44396408|title=Enlightened Ways: The Many Streams of Buddhist Art in Thailand |publisher=Asian Art Museum of San Francisco |year=2012|pages=13|chapter=The Many Streams of Buddhist Art in Thailand}}</ref><ref>{{cite thesis |last1=Smith |first1=John |title=State, Community, and Ethnicity in Early Modern Thailand, 1351-1767 |type=Ph.D. dissertation |publisher=University of Michigan |year=2019 |url=https://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/handle/2027.42/151629/jsfsmith_1.pdf?sequence=1 |access-date=2023-04-08|page=40}}</ref>

==Geography==
{{see also|Mae Chan Fault}}
North Thailand is bound by the [[Salween River]] in the west and the [[Mekong]] in the east. The basins of rivers [[Ping River|Ping]], [[Wang River|Wang]], [[Yom River|Yom]], and [[Nan River|Nan]], all tributaries of the [[Chao Phraya River]], in the central part run from north to south and are mostly very wide. The basins cut across the mountains of two great ranges, the [[Thanon Range]] in the western part and the [[Phi Pan Nam]] in the eastern. Their elevations are generally moderate, a little above {{convert|2,000.|m}} for the highest summits. Although formerly forested, many of these mountains are now denuded.<ref>[http://rainforests.mongabay.com/deforestation/archive/Thailand.htm Forest data: Thailand Deforestation Rates]</ref>

Parallel mountain ranges extend from the [[Daen Lao Range]], in the southern region of the [[Shan Hills]], in a north–south direction, the [[Dawna Range]] forming the western border of Thailand between [[Mae Hong Son]] and the [[Salween River]].<ref>[http://www1.mod.go.th/heritage/nation/geography/geo3.htm Northern Thailand] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120128091643/http://www1.mod.go.th/heritage/nation/geography/geo3.htm |date=2012-01-28 }}</ref> To the east the [[Thanon Thong Chai Range]], the [[Khun Tan Range]], the [[Phi Pan Nam Range]], as well as the western part of the [[Luang Prabang Range]], form the natural region of the Thai highlands together with the former.<ref>ดร.กระมล ทองธรรมชาติ และคณะ, สังคมศึกษา ศาสนาและวัฒนธรรม ม.1, สำนักพิมพ์ อักษรเจริญทัศน์ อจท. จำกัด, 2548, หน้า 24-25</ref>

The high mountains are incised by steep river valleys and upland areas that border the central plain. A series of rivers, including the [[Nan River|Nan]], [[Ping River|Ping]], [[Wang River|Wang]], [[Yom River|Yom]], and [[Nan River|Nan]], flow southwards through mountain valleys and join to form the [[Chao Phraya River|Chao Phraya]] in [[Nakhon Sawan Province]] in the central region. [[Sirikit Dam]] is on the Nan River in Uttaradit Province. The northeastern part is drained by rivers flowing into the [[Mekong]] basin, like the [[Kok River|Kok]] and [[Ing River|Ing]].

The four-region system includes the northern parts of the [[Central Thailand|central plain]] as well as some mountainous areas bordering the western and the northeastern limits. The total forest area is {{convert|90,228|km²|abbr=on}} or 52.5 percent of this four-region area.<ref name="RFD"/>

===National parks===
{{main|List of national parks of Thailand}}
Within the northern region there are some sixty [[List of protected areas of Thailand#National parks in the Thai highlands|national parks]]. Chiang Mai Province has nine national parks of which [[Doi Inthanon National Park]] with the country's highest mountain and [[Op Luang National Park]] have a scenic river canyon, waterfalls, and caves. [[Doi Khun Tan National Park]], which is located midway between the two provincial capitals of province Lampang and Lamphun, is best known for Thailand's longest railroad tunnel, which is {{convert|1,352|m}} long. [[Doi Phu Kha National Park]] in province Nan is northern Thailand's largest national park.

== Regional classification of northern Thailand ==
The northern region, as defined by the National Geographical Committee in 1978, consists of nine [[Provinces of Thailand|provinces]]. Geographically the division, in conformance with the six-region system, includes most of the [[mountainous]] [[natural region]] of the [[Thai highlands]].

In the [[Regions of Thailand#Grouping systems|four-region classification system]], northern Thailand gains the eight upper-central-region provinces: [[Kamphaeng Phet Province|Kamphaeng Phet]], [[Nakhon Sawan Province|Nakhon Sawan]], [[Phetchabun Province|Phetchabun]], [[Phichit Province|Phichit]], [[Phitsanulok Province|Phitsanulok]], [[Sukhothai Province|Sukhothai]], [[Uthai Thani Province|Uthai Thani]] and [[Tak Province|Tak]], bringing the total to 17 provinces.

In 2019 it is common to subdivide the northern region into: nine provinces of the upper northern region and eight provinces of the lower northern region. All websites of these eight provinces state: "located in the lower northern region".
