Have a great day out from Bangkok to famous attractions in Hua Hin region. Beautiful temple, historic landmark, a nice market, and the beach, this single trip has it all and will make for a rewarding day in Hua Hin.

Wat Huay Mongkol, some 15 kilometers west of Hua Hin, is renowned for its huge statue Luang Phu Thuad, one of Thailand’s most revered monks. It’s a highly rated attraction with beautiful landscape and unique sight of very large Buddhist monk statue. It’s a park like environment, ideal for a couple of hours of relaxing. There is a lake, streams, waterfalls, bridges, a number of pavilions and lots of shade under the trees to relax. There are several restaurants serving Thai food. So apart from the remarkable Luang Phor Thuad statue, Wat Huay Mongkol is peaceful and nice place worth a visit for everyone.

Hua Hin Railway Station is one of the country’s most beautiful train stations marked by its meticulous details in architecture. Built in the reign of King Rama VI, the station features a Royal Waiting Room with Thai architecture style, a room which was relocated from Sanam Chan Palace in Nakhon Pathom province during the reign of King Rama VI. This iconic landmark sits on a nice landscape in the center of Hua Hin and it will let you have a glimpse of Thailand of old.

PlearnWan atmosphere is filled with the good-old-day elements like old songs, old stuffs, old desserts, old-style advertisement posters, and bygone era temple fairs. Shops and booths operate inside wooden two-story houses. This place is among many places in Thailand where the old stores or markets are getting a redo to open to tourists to accompany a trend longing for old days. And though PlearnWan is not an authentic old market its decor is done well enough to give you the glimpse. The place is nice and compact with a lot of Thai food, snacks, and goodies so it will be an easy stroll. PlearnWan market is open between 10am and 10pm on weekdays and between 9am and midnight on weekends.

Last but not least the trip won’t be complete without a visit to the beach. We can take you to Hua Hin beach where there will be more activities and people or quieter Suan Son beach. You can take a while to enjoy the sea, sand, sun, taking photos, and relax all round. Then head back to Bangkok after a happy Hua Hin day trip.
