It Is A Holiday Making Ecstasy At Hua Hin

By Sandy More


Some things stand out so strikingly that they deserve to be branded as being out of this world. Hua Hin, Thailand is one such marvel. The tropical climate holds for the better part of the year, here are stunning sites to visit and the manner of the natives is as warm as the weather.

This spot can be checked off for every wish a holiday maker could have. It was first home to farmers migrating to escape drought. When they came across Hua Hun, they opted to call this place home.

As the town grew, Railway Hotel was erected. The King back then toured the area and was so enamored that he had a summer house put up. The King of Thailand today calls this his home. More palaces came up and a prince christened the beach Hua Hin. This was later upgraded to a district of Prachuap Khiri Khan Province. When the southern railway was completed, Hua Hin became the first and most famed beach resort in Thailand.

The beach is the main charmer. Also a puller is the traditionally built wooden railway station structures. The vibrant market also gets quite a crowd. Also of interest are peaks from which one can stand and gaze upon the beauty of the land. Tao Hill, Takiap and Hin Lek Fai Hill. A sight to behold is the 11 tier Pa La-u Waterfall and the emerald forest hidden in it.

The superstitious may want to carry an extra brassiere when heading to a beach by the same name. Legend has it that the Spirit Houses of Brassiere Beach was built to appease the spirit of the daughter of a fisherman who was cut into pieces with her breasts falling into the sea. Locals hang brassieres here and pray for good luck.

The home of famed monk Luang Pu Thuat, Wat Huay Mongkol is another charmer and so is the biggest statue called Luang Phor Thuat in it. About 8 kilometers on the south side of Hua Hin is the tranquil Suan Son Pradipaht beach. Also, you take can in the flavor of this land in a literal sense. This would be at a wine tasting session tasting indigenous Monsoon Valley Wines from the lone vineyard, Huan Hin Hills.

Visitors are spoilt for recreation choices. There is eco-cruising, mini football, golf, martial arts, elephant camping and pony rides are some of them. Water lovers can surf, go kite boarding, snorkel among others. You can also learn to whip up Thai delicacies with cooking lessons or to throw a perfect punch with Thai boxing lessons. Take home some wonderful mementos in form of gemstones, jeweled trinkets and handicrafts. Most famous is beautiful printed cotton called Khommaphat that can be used to make various items. By night, get down in the disco, sing along in karaoke bars and concerts and enjoy a drink at the bars.

After spending the day out, retire to relaxing quarters. There are several choices ranging from world class beach resorts, hotels that are mid cost and budget self catering cottages. There are also holiday apartments. You can choose a room or suite that affords you a stunning view of the ocean and the beach. No matter the specifics of your trip though, one thing you can count on is that a fabulous time and a heart full of great memories of Hua Hin is guaranteed.
