Running through the middle of the peninsula are several mountain chains, with the highest elevation at the 1835 m high [[Khao Luang]] in the Nakhon Si Thammarat Province. Ranging from the Kra Isthmus till the [[Phuket]] island is the [[Phuket mountain range|Phuket chain]], which connects to the [[Tanao Si Mountain Range]] further north. Almost parallel to the Phuket chain but 100km to the east is the [[Nakhon Si Thammarat mountain range|Nakhon Si Thammarat or Banthat chain]], which begins with the [[Ko Samui|Samui island]] and ends at the Malaysian border at the Ko Ta Ru Tao archipelago. The border to Malaysia is formed by the [[Sankalakhiri mountain range|Sankalakhiri range]], sometimes subdivided into the Pattani, Taluban and Songkhla chain. At the border to Malaysia begins the [[Titiwangsa Mountains|Titiwangsa chain]].
 
Varias cordilleras recorren el centro de la península, con el punto más elevado en el Khao Luang de 1.835 m de altura en la provincia de Nakhon Si Thammarat.Desde el Istmo de Kra hasta la isla de Phuket se extiende la cordillera de Phuket, la cual conecta con la cordillera de Tanao Si más al norte. Casi en paralelo con la cordillera de Phuket pero 100 km al este está la cordillera de Nakhon Si Thammarat (o cordillera de Banthat), la cual comienza en la isla Samui y termina en la frontera malaya en el archipiélago Ko Ta Ru Tao. La frontera con Malasia la forma la cordillera de Sankalakhiri, subdividida a su vez en las cordilleras de Pattani, Taluban y Songkhla. Justo en la frontera con Malasia comienza la cordillera Titiwangsa.
The limestone of the western coast has been eroded into many steep singular hills. Those parts submerged by the rising sea after the last ice age now form the many islands, like the well known [[Phi Phi Islands]]. Also quite famous is the so-called ''James Bond Island'' in the [[Phang Nga Bay]], which featured in the movie ''[[The Man with the Golden Gun (film)|The Man with the Golden Gun]]''.
 
La piedra caliza de la costa occidental se ha erosionado formando unas singulares colinas empinadas. Las partes sumergidas por el océano ascendente tras la edad de hielo forman ahora múltiples islas, como las conocidas Islas Phi Phi. También es famosa la llamada ''Isla de James Bond'' en la Bahía de Phang Nga, la cual apareció en la película ''[[El hombre de la pistola de oro (película)|El hombre de la pistola de oro]]''.

In the [[1st millennium|first millennium]] Chinese chronicles mention several coastal cities or city-states, however they don't give exact geographical location, so the identification of these cities with the later historical cities is difficult. The most important of these states were [[Langkasuka]], usually considered a precursor of the [[Pattani kingdom]]; [[Tambralinga]], probably the precursor of the [[Nakhon Si Thammarat kingdom]], or [[Pan Pan|P'an-p'an]], probably located at the [[Bandon Bay]]. The cities were highly influenced by [[Indianization|Indian]] culture, and have adopted [[Brahman]] or [[Buddhist]] religion. When [[Srivijaya]] extended its sphere of influence, those cities became tributary states of Srivijaya.
