Hua Hin Attractions and entertainment - what to see

There are not too many attractions in Hua Hin itself, but there are enough of them in the vicinity of the city. It will not be difficult to visit the city's sights on your own, reaching them on foot or by local public transport - Songthaew minibus. But you will have to get to interesting places outside the city with an excursion or by rented transport. You can buy excursions at travel agencies on the street or at the reception of hotels.

In between relaxing on the beach and sightseeing trips, you can go golfing, go through spa treatments, visit a massage parlor, etc. Elephant riding is popular and can be found in several places near the city. There is karting. There are several markets in the city, designed specifically for tourists (assortment – souvenirs and crafts). Be sure to visit one of the night markets and the floating market. Well, on the beaches, of course, there are a lot of water sports and entertainment.

There is not a lot of nightlife in Hua Hin, but it is still there. There is a whole tourist area in the center, packed to the brim with noisy bars with girls. This place has formed around the streets of Soi Selakam, Nares Damri and others in the area (tourist area on the map of Hua Hin). Also in the evening it will be interesting to stroll through one of Hua Hin's night markets or sit in a seafood restaurant near the fisherman's pier.

Below is a list of Hua Hin attractions, including those related to the resort Cha-Am. Usually all these places are visited from both Hua Hin and Cha-Am. It is also worth visiting the city Phetchaburi is 80 kilometers to the north, which is interesting for its ancient temples and royal palaces.

Attractions in Hua Hin

• Hua Hin Railway Station

  

  Hua Hin railway station is positioned as one of the main attractions of the city and the most beautiful station in Thailand. For the locals, this place is very important and almost sacred. The fact is that it was thanks to the construction of the station in 1911 that the city began to develop and turned into a resort. But the most important thing is that in 1920, an additional Royal waiting room appeared next to the main building, in which members of the royal family spent time waiting for the train. Currently, the Royal Hall is not used, but outsiders are not allowed there either. Learn more about Huahin railway station and photos here...

  This temple, also called Wat Hua Hin, is the main temple and monastery of the city. Architecturally, it does not stand out in any remarkable way, one can even say that it is one of the most ordinary temples in Thailand, but in practical application the temple is very important. It is at once a temple, a monastery, a crematorium and a cemetery. Of course, the cemetery here is not in the same sense as you might expect. Considering that it is customary to cremate in Thailand, the ashes are buried in urns, bricking them into temple buildings.

  Anyone can visit the temple, regardless of faith. In the early morning, near the temple, monks accept donations from residents, you can also participate in this action. Learn more about Wat Ampharam Temple and photos...

  The name of this place is also spelled as Plern Wan or Plearn Wan. This is another great place for relaxing evening walks in Hua Hin. It is worth visiting one of the evenings, along with Hua Hin night Market and Cicada market.

  Plearnwan can also be considered as a night market (although it works during the day, but it is most interesting to visit it in the evening), but it is something more. It's more of an open-air museum than just a market. It is stylized as the 50s of the last century, for which several installations have been created here, transporting visitors to that time.

• Hua Hin Safari Park & Adventure Park

  

  This amusement park is also known as Elephant village, although elephants are only part of the entertainment program. Here you can also ride an ATV, play paintball, ride a horse, watch a show of crocodiles and snakes.

  Nevertheless, the most important "feature" of the park are elephants, their shows (young elephants draw, play the accordion, massage and all that), and elephant riding. It is worth saying that elephant riding is quite expensive here, which is positioned as the most complete elephant riding. But the thing is, rather, that this is just the closest place to the city where you can ride elephants.

  For those who have already seen the show of elephants, crocodiles, snakes in Thailand, nothing new will open here. If you haven't seen such places yet, then you can come here.

  Practical Information

  🕐Working hours: from 08:00 to 17:00.

• Hin Lek Fai Mountain and observation deck

  

  On the mountain Khao Hin Lek Fai (also Flintstone Hill) with a height of 162 meters, three kilometers from Hua Hin, there is a whole complex of six viewing platforms connected by paths and bridges. It is believed that this is the best observation deck on the city. Indeed, it offers the widest view of the coast and the city, although it is difficult to call it incredibly picturesque, because it is just a city by the sea. Nevertheless, this place is definitely worth a visit.

  In addition to the viewing points themselves, there is a whole park where you can see some exotic plants, including orchids in natural conditions. There are also peacocks walking here, some other birds and a lot of monkeys. Be careful with monkeys: keep backpacks and bags closed, watch out for glasses, chains, phones and cameras. Even if you don't see monkeys next to you, it doesn't mean that they don't exist. They can appear completely unexpectedly, including attacking.

  Klai Kang Won Palace is another royal palace, or rather the residence of the king and his family in Hua Hin. The name can be translated as "Away from worries." Its construction was completed in 1929 by King Rama VII, and it is still used by the royal family. But during periods when none of the family members are here, it is open to all comers.

  In fact, it is difficult to call it a palace, rather it looks like a royal summer residence. It is built of wood, they say that it is made of valuable teak, in the European style with Spanish motifs. There is nothing on the first floor of the palace except the park. The premises are located on the second floor, and you need to pay extra for entering them.

Attractions in the vicinity of Hua Hin

• Wat Huay Mongkol Temple

  

  This temple is one of the holiest places near Hua Hin. Buddhists come here every day from all over Thailand and not only.

  Unlike most other sacred places in Thailand, the main statue of the temple is not a traditional Buddha statue, but a statue of monk Luang Pu Thuat, who lived more than 400 years ago. He is one of the most revered Buddhist monks not only in Thailand, but also in neighboring countries. This statue is the largest statue of Lungpo Thota. Its height without a podium is 11.5 meters. By the way, this is a completely new statue, its production ended in 2004. After dark, at about 18-19 o'clock, the statue is illuminated, so that it can be visited in the evening.

  Thais believe that amulets with the image of Lungpo Thota protect a person from all kinds of disasters, and especially from car accidents. Near the temple you can buy such amulets, but do not be surprised that they are so expensive, because for Thais it is not just a souvenir. Learn more about the temple and photos here...

  About 15 kilometers from Hua Hin, beyond the Wat Bo Fai Temple, there is a quiet and beautiful Chinese temple in spacious fields. This is an incredibly quiet and deserted place, and it's amazing how this wonderful temple and a large statue of a sitting happy Buddha on a hillside turned out to be here. In addition, there are several more unusual statues, an old-looking small pagoda hidden behind trees, and a small lake.

  The really good thing about this place is that there are no crowds of tourists (there is no one in the area at all), there are no shops and shops. You can come here with pleasure, without hurrying, to walk around the temple and the surrounding area, just relax. This place does not tolerate fuss, and if you want to come here and see everything in a hurry, you will most likely be disappointed. One bad thing is that you have to get here by rented transport or taxi. Read more about the temple and the happy Buddha in Hua Hin here...

  There is a cave temple in the Khao Luang Cave caves. This is one of the most striking sights near Hua Hin. There are many Buddha statues in the temple, including a large statue of a reclining Buddha.

• Sam Phan Nam Floating Market

  

  There are three floating markets in total near Hua Hin, and the Sam Phan Nam market, in our opinion, is the most interesting and worth visiting. Sam Phan Nam is also the largest of them. All three markets are surrogates, and none of them has ever been a real traditional floating market. In our opinion, this market is the closest to real floating markets, although, of course, it is still far from them.

  This place is quite good, if you don't make too big claims about the degree of its authenticity. Yes, this is far from the Bangkok floating market, some of which are still the main place for some residents of the capital to shop, earn money and meet. But there are almost always a lot of people here, great food, there is some entertainment. On a small artificial lake, in which there is a huge amount of fish, boats with food and kitchens float. If you wish, you can ride on one of the boats. The choice of souvenirs is very large, everything is on sale, from traditional magnets to clothes. In the coastal cafe you can have a very tasty and inexpensive meal, and food can be delivered to you directly from the floating kitchen boat. A railway has been built around the market with a train on which you can ride. Read more about the floating market and photos here...

  This is just an entertainment park-market created in the style of traditional floating markets in Thailand, although from the real floating market there is only water and boats. Tourists and locals come here to sit in a cafe, do tourist shopping, go boating on the lake on a ship or duck boats. For a greater resemblance to a real market, sometimes boats are launched on the lake, from which they sell food. There is also a sheep farm here.

  If you come here on a normal weekday, you will most likely be disappointed by its desolation and silence. But on weekends and holidays it comes to life, live music performances are arranged here, a traditional dance show is shown, etc. To get to the real fun in this floating market, you need to follow the posters in the city about holding events here.

• Hua Hin New Floating Market

  

  The newest floating market near Hua Hin is located near the Wat Huay Mongkol Temple. The market is so new and untwisted that so far (in 2014) there is simply no one there except traders and service personnel. For this reason, it's not much fun there, everything looks dull, despite the novelty. In general, it cannot be said that you should definitely go to this market, because there are two other floating markets much closer to the city. But if you go to Wat Huay Mongkol temple (and you definitely need to go there), you can drop by along the way. Perhaps by that time the market will have become a little more fun.
