195 kms south of Bangkok on the west side of the Gulf of Thailand you find Hua Hin - The resort fit for a King. This is actually true because The King of Thailand, King Bhumibol Adulyadej (Rama IX), has his summer residence the Klai Kangwon palace (far from worries) here.
Hua Hin is the natural stop for most people travelling south to the islands, as it is the first taste of genuine Thai culture in an environment that makes everybody feel like home mixed with more tourist approached shopping like
tailors, jewlers and restaurants serving both Thai and Western food. The resort
has much to offer both in sights and attractions and in a rich nightlife.
The white sand beach in Hua Hin stretches 5 kms from the town center all the way to the rocky hill of Khao Takiab, which is famous for its great view, many temples and for its many monkeys.
For those of you who plays golf, Hua Hin is the ideal place to holiday, since there are six world class golf courses here. All within a 30 minute drive. |
