HUA HIN - BANGKOK TRIP (7D6N)
PART I
This year I been travel to Bangkok with my siblings them (the 1st + finally after grown up together for many years), the interesting part is we are able travel along to Hua Hin as well.
Below is the Summary of our Bangkok Trip Itinerary Plan.
Hua Hin is a seaside resort city in Thailand. It is popular with Thais, having become quite fashionable as a weekend getaway spot for Bangkok residents, as well with foreigners and as an ex-pat retirement or holiday home location.
It is in the Province of Prachuap Khiri Khan, to the north of this city, which is about 1-2 hours distance by bus.
The more convenient to downtown Bangkok, you can take a minibus from near the Victory Monument (Anusawari Chai), near the BTS skytrain. Cost is 180 THB, limited baggage. The Hua Hin vans board in the alleyway next to Century Movie Plaza close to the stairs at the southern end of Victory Monument BTS station. From the Skytrain station, take the walkway south, descend the staircase on the east side to street level. The minibus area is next to the stairs. Look for a small table with "Cha Am, Hua Hin" written in English to buy your ticket.
Minibuses from Hua Hin back to BKK (180 baht) leave opposite the Pananchai Hotel in Naebkehas Rd, some 200m along a side road from the clock tower.
After the 3 hours road journey, we are arrived at Cha Am, Hua Hin finally.
Below image is the destination which the minivan drop us. As usual, the local thais driver or tourism agent will intro their Hua Hin Taxi/Minivan service day trip.
We have booked with 6 tourist place with around THB250/pax.

Cha-am Beach
A simple wider beach side, nothing special but just drop by a while as the middy heat is crazy during that month. Yet, we got ourselves a cold drink or ice cream near by the 7-11 store. (Always my favourite store of overseas) :D
Plearnwan is a combination of the English words 'Play and Learn', whereas the thai word 'Wan' refers to yesterday. It is a place where everyone can play and learn the lifestyle of earlier time, do know the history, culture and arts of living of that period.
It is Thailand's first eco vintage village, with their charming wooden building structure which some good fun for everyone by entering a world of nostalgia through its main gate that looks like a time tunnel. Another must-visit attraction in Hua Hin.
Bits and pieces are from the 70's and 80's surround the atmosphere, such as rusty post box, candy dispensers, old times toy games, etc.
