Understand
Phetchaburi, 123 kilometres from Bangkok, is an old city that used to be an important garrison town a long time ago. The province is worth visiting for its splendid historical park and ancient temples, wonderful beaches and caves, as well as a great variety of local food.

Phetchaburi occupies an area of 6,225 square kilometres, characterised by thick jungles and mountain ranges lying in the west as a border between Thailand and Myanmar, and 80km long coastline towards the Gulf of Thailand in the east.

Phetchaburi is divided into 8 districts (Amphoes): Mueang Phetchaburi, Ban Laem, Ban Lat, Cha-am, Kaeng Krachan, Khao Yoi,  Nong Ya Plong and Tha Yang.

Amphoe Mueang Phetchaburi
Phra Nakhon Khiri Historical Park (อุทยานประวัติศาสตร์พระนครคีรี) This covers a hilly area with an old palace and historical temples in the vicinity of the town. This summer palace was built by King Rama IV in 1860. It was named " Phra Nakhon Khiri Palace", but the folk usually call it “Khao Wang”. It consists of royal halls, temples and groups of buildings, constructed mostly in harmonious Thai, Western neoclassic and Chinese architectural styles. The Phra Nakhon Khiri Museum on the western hilltop exhibits some royal paraphernalia of King Rama IV and King Rama V, decorative sculptures, and ceramics from China, Japan and Europe. To reach the hilltop, one can either walk or take a cable car. The park is open daily from 8.30 a.m.-4.30 p.m. Admission is 40 baht including the museum ticket. A round-trip transfer in cable cars costs 30 baht per person. For more information, call 0 3242 5600. Khao Wang is home to wild monkeys which may seize visitors’ belongings. Please stay away from them and do not give them any food.

Khao Bandai It (เขาบันไดอิฐ) This hill is 121 metres high and just 2km south of Khao Wang. It is the site of an ancient temple of the Ayutthaya Period. There are several caves called Tham Prathun, Tham Phra Chao Suea, and Tham Phra Phuttha Saiyat. Khao Bandai It, like Khao Wang, is full of wild monkeys. Please stay away from them and do not give them any food.

Tham Khao Luang (ถ้ำเขาหลวง) Located 5km north of Khao Wang, this cave houses a Buddha image cast by the royal command of King Rama V as a dedication to King Rama III and King Rama IV. At the foot of the Khao Luang Hill, there is a large monastery called “Wat Tham Klaep” or Wat Bun-thawi which has a very large hall and a chapel with beautifully carved door panels.

Wat Mahathat Worawihan (วัดมหาธาตุวรวิหาร) This old temple is situated by the Phetchaburi River in the town centre. There is a five-topped pagoda constructed in accordance with the Mahayana concept housing Lord Buddha’s relics. The stucco designs decorated on the viharn and the ubosot reflect the excellent skill of local craftsmen.

Wat Yai Suwannaram (วัดใหญ่สุวรรณาราม) This is another important temple in the town, situated 1km east of the city hall. The main shrine hall has no windows. It contains 300-year-old mural paintings of mythical angels. The multi-purpose hall, once located in Ayutthaya’s Grand Palace, was entirely built of teakwood and decorated with fine carving work especially at the door panels. The hall also houses a preaching throne with intricate woodcarvings and gold gilt works of Bangkok design. The shrine hall is usually close. Visitors wishing to see the inside of the shrine hall can ask permission from the abbot.

Wat Kamphaeng Laeng (วัดกำแพงแลง) This temple, situated in the town, was originally a Khmer place of worship. It was later turned into a Buddhist temple and a shrine hall was constructed. However, the outlook of the place has not much changed due to the existence of sandstone walls and four Khmer style pagodas.

Phra Ram Ratchaniwet (พระรามราชนิเวศน์) This palace of European architectural style is originally called "Wang Ban Puen". It is situated in the south of the town. King Rama V commanded it built as a rainy season palace in 1916. It was used to welcome and accommodate state visitors during the reign of King Rama VI. The palace is open every day from 8 a.m.-4 p.m. Admission is free. For more information, call 0 3242 8506-10 ext. 259.

Hat Chao Samran (หาดเจ้าสำราญ) This historic beach is 15 kilometres southeast of the town. There is a road linking Hat Chao Samran, Puek Tian and Cha-am. Legend says that King Naresuan the Great and King Eka Thotsarot made several royal visits here and highly appreciated its beauty. The villagers thus rendered it a name "Hat Chao Samran", which means “Beach of Royal Leisure”. King Rama IV ordered a seaside palace built at this beach in 1918 and called it “Hat Chao Samran Palace”. Accommodation is available.

Amphoe Tha Yang
Hat Puek Tian (หาดปึกเตียน) 7 kilometres south of Hat Chao Samran, this wide and long beach is popular among Thai tourists. The most prominent landmark is a huge statue of a female giant standing in the sea.

Amphoe Ban Laem
Wat Khao Takhrao (วัดเขาตะเครา) Travel 12km from Phetchaburi to Amphoe Ban Laem and continue for another 6km. This temple houses a highly revered sitting Buddha image called "Luang Pho Khao Takhrao". The image was found at the mouth of the Mae Klong River in Samut Songkhram by the villagers of Ban Laem, who migrated from Ban Laem to Samut Songkhram during the fall of Ayutthaya.

Hat Laem Luang (หาดแหลมหลวง) Located 4 kilometres north of Hat Chao Samran, this beach stretchs for 2 kilometres and is full of white sand.

Amphoe Kaeng Krachan
Kaeng Krachan Dam (เขื่อนแก่งกระจาน) This dam is located 53km southwest of the town along the Phetchaburi-Tha Yang-Kaeng Krachan route. The construction was completed in 1966. It is 760 metres long and 58 metres high, overlooking beautiful scenery of the reservoir and its islands. Kaeng Krachan National Park (อุทยานแห่งชาติแก่งกระจาน) This is the most extensive national park of Thailand occupying an area of 2,915 square kilometres and still largely unexplored. The national park office is located, 3km beyond Kaeng Krachan Dam. It was declared a national park on June 12, 1981, with clearly defined areas for a reservoir and year round green jungle in the Tanaosri Ranges, which are the origins of many rivers. The area is also rich in flora and fauna and has an 18-level waterfall named Namtok Tho Thip. About 54km from the park office on the Sai Wang Won-Namtok Tho Thip route, there is a viewpoint affording magnificent views of misty mountains in the morning and suitable for bird and butterfly watching.

Admission is 200 baht per person. A pick-up truck can be chartered at the park office to get to the peak of Phanoen Thung mountain. Tents are also available. Call 0 3245 9293 for more information.

Amphoe Khao Yoi
Tham Khao Yoi (ถ้ำเขาย้อย) This cave is located behind the railway station of Amphoe Khao Yoi, 22km prior to arriving at Phetchaburi town. It houses several Buddha images and was the place where King Mongkut practised meditation while he was in the monkhood.

Wat Kuti (วัดกุฏิ) This temple at Tambon Bang Khem, north of Amphoe Khao Yoi, houses a Bot or rite hall made entirely from carved teak wood. Its outer surface of the walls was carved into scenes depicting Lord Buddha’s story and the door panels into openwork of intwined spray patterns, all with masterly craftsmanship.

Lao Song or Thai Song Dam Tribal Villages (หมู่บ้านลาวโซ่งหรือไทยทรงดำ) These are found in many vicinities in Amphoe Khao Yoi, particularly at Ban Nong Prong and Ban Thap Khang. Their ancestors have migrated from Laos. Their old customs and traditions are occasionally practised. In April, they organise their own social events with entertainment and folk plays.

Do
Rafting along the Phetchaburi River (ล่องแก่งแม่น้ำเพชรบุรี) is an exciting adventure through the Kaeng Krachan National Park. The trip from Phetchaburi to the starting point takes 3 hours by 4-wheel drive truck and the raft trip takes some 5 hours passing a verdant forest and a Karen hilltribe village.

A 5-day rafting tour starts from Kasetsart University (K.U.) camp to the Kaeng Krachan National Park for 33km. It passes many rapids and several smaller rivers, suitable only for adventurous tourists.

Festivals and Events
Phra Nakhon Khiri Fair (งานพระนครคีรี) Phra Nakhon Khiri, also known as Khao Wang, is an important historical site. During the reign of King Rama IV, it served as the king’s out-of-town palace.

To celebrate Phetchaburi’s cultural heritage-particular Phra Nakhon Khiri-the people of Phetchaburi hold the Phra Nakhon Khiri Fair regularly around the end of February at Khao Wang Compound.

The five-day fair presents a parade of people enacting the procession of monarchs who ruled Phetchaburi; during the Dvaravati and Srivijaya Periods. Aprat from that, there are exhibitions on Phetchaburi’s history and archaeological objects. Cooking demonstrations on the province’s famous dishes and sweetmeats are among the main attractions of the fair. Also featured are various kinds of entertainment and contests.

Thai Song Dam Festival (ประเพณีไทยทรงดำ) The festival is held annually on April 18 at Song Dam Village, Khao Yoi district. Apart from a merit-making ceremony, folk plays and the authentic cuisine of Thai Song Dam villagers are also on offer. Many villagers wear their traditional costumes – a sight rarely seen today.

Local Products
Phetchaburi is famous for a vast variety of sweets. The reputation of these sweets stems from the use of Tanot (palm) sugar as some of their ingredients. Examples are Mo-kaeng, a sweet made from flour, sugar and eggs; A-lua and Sampanni, a sweet made from flour and sugar; Thong Yip, Thong Yot and Foi Thong, sweets made from baked egg-yolk; and Chao Tan Chueam (palm seed in thick syrup). Visitors are able to buy these sweets as souvenirs from sweet shops near Khao Wang or the shops on both sides of Phetkasem Road.

Khao Chae (rice served with ice and sweetened meat) is a renowned local dish and is popular during the summer season as it cools you down. Khanomchin Thotman (rice noodles with fishcakes) is also a popular dish.

Fruits are found in every season. Phetchaburi’s famous fruits are sweet and aromatic rose apples known as Chomphu Phet, fresh palm seeds, pineapples from Don Khun Huai, cantaloupes and gold bananas from Amphoe Tha Yang. Hats and handbags made from hemp are available at Hup Kraphong village, 4km before Cha-am district.
