About Phitsanulok Bus Terminal 1


Until 2014 Phitsanulok Bus Terminal 1 was simply known as Phitsanulok Bus Terminal and it served as the main bus station for the city of Phitsanulok. In 2014 things changed when a new much larger bus terminal (known as Phitsanulok Bus Terminal 2) was opened at a site located well out of the city centre near a major interprovincial highway. The original Phitsanulok Bus Terminal still operates but the number of services which arrive and depart from Phitsanulok Bus Terminal 1 are far fewer than those operating out of Phitsanulok Bus Terminal 2. If you plan to go on a long distance bus journey from Phitsanulok you will have much greater range of options from Phitsanulok Bus Terminal 2 than from Phitsanulok Bus Terminal 1.
