It serves as a gateway for trade and tourism between Thailand and Laos, particularly through the Friendship Bridge that connects the two countries.

The capital city of the province, also named Nong Khai, is home to a variety of attractions, including the Sala Kaew Ku sculpture park, which features large Buddhist and Hindu statues. This city is a popular destination for both local and international visitors, who come to explore its markets, temples, and the scenic riverside along the Mekong.
