Prachuap Khiri Khan is loaned some 281 kilometres south of Bangkok. After the old town was abandoned during the fall of Ayutthaya a new settlement was established in 1845 in the reign of King Rama IV.
The province, today, is more famous for its natural charm of beaches and mountains than historical attractions. Hua Hin, its major attraction, is one of Thailand’s most popular seaside resorts among overseas visitors as well as Thais.
Prachuap Khirikhan City & Ao Manao Beach
Prachuap Khiri Khan City, located in the province called Prachuap Khiri Khan, is a lovely picturesque and surprising small city. Nestled between hills, the main part of the city is very quaint and a really great place to go to relax for a day.
There is not much activity in the City itself however having a coffee by the seaside boardwalk overlooking two mountains gets you into the Sabai Sabai atmosphere and out of the hustle and bustle.
The whole point of going to this City is just enjoying the beautiful views and doing nothing but relax. About 3 kilometres outside the City centre is Ao Manao beach. This was once a battlefield in World War II between Japanese and Thai forces. Ao Manao beach is inside a Thai air-force base so you might have to show your passport as you go inside.
The beach is very clean and dotted with souvenir stalls, sun chairs Thai style and a small hawker centre with delicious seafood. Apparently the beach closes at 8pm so do watch your time. Prachuap Khiri Khan is now divided into 7 districts and 1 minor district: Mueang Prachuap Khiri Khan, Kui Buri, Thap Sakae, Bang Saphan, Bang Saphan Noi Pran Buri, Hua Hin, Sam Roi Yot
