A province and town in southern Thailand, famous for its limestone cliffs, beaches, and islands.
From Thai กระบี่ (gràbìi), referring to an ancient sword-like weapon. Local legend tells of a magical sword (krabi) that gave the area its name.
Krabi's name connects to the ancient martial art of Krabi-Krabong, which uses sword and staff weapons. The province's dramatic limestone karsts were formed over millions of years and now create one of Thailand's most photographed landscapes, making the 'sword province' ironically peaceful.
