Suvarṇabhūmi literally means "land of gold".The name was chosen by King Bhumibol Adulyadej whose name includes Bhūmi, referring to the "Buddhist golden kingdom", thought to have been to the east of the Ganges, possibly somewhere in Southeast Asia. In Thailand, government proclamations and national museums insist that Suvarnabhumi was somewhere on the coast of the central plains, near the ancient city of U Thong, which might be the origin of the Indianised Dvaravati culture.Although the claims have not been substantiated, the Thai government named the new Bangkok airport Suvarnabhumi Airport, in celebration of this tradition.
