Hua Hin Sam Phan Nam Floating Market

Hua Hin Sam Phan Nam Floating Market

Due to the obvious reason of the flood that threatens the livelihood of Bangkok, Hua Hin, always a couple of hours away, is now teeming with accidental tourists who find refuge even for a short while. And it is surprising the town never runs out of attractions even for repeated visitors like ourselves.

Hua Hin Sam Phan Nam Floating Market in Tubtai Subdistrict is one of the newer destinations of its kind. Its spacious venue lends the necessary retail space to over 250 shops that offer a variety of food, miscellaneous utilitarian items and gifts. Large water reservoir provides the much needed counterbalance to the heat.

Hua Hin Sam Phan Nam Floating Market

The key attraction here is perhaps the setting itself as it is infinitely photogenic and very Hua Hin thanks to the characteristic architecture. Red building contrasts superbly with the crisp blue sky. Postboxs on site to help you tell people you wish they were there. I could not resist the temptation to pick up a nice postcard and wrote a song to cheer my sister up from the difficult situation she was facing. It would have been great if she tagged along as a place like this could easily help her unwind.

By car, inbound for Hua Hin, it is easier to reach the market by taking the bypass road to the right towards Prachuap Khiri Khan. You will see Wat Huay Mongkol on the right and then the market will be on your left. Signage is provided along the way. Those arriving in Hua Hin by bus or train can get to the market for only 20 Baht. A bus shuttles back and forth between the station and the market every half hour from 07:00 A.M. to 07:00 P.M.

The upcoming New Year festivity is a good excuse to visit Hua Hin Sam Phan Nam Floating Market as they have a celebration that runs the entire duration of December. Be sure to have a stroll there next time you are in Hua Hin.

Samchuk Suphanburi

Samchuk Market,Row houses Marketing is a large wooden 2 Floor located along the river, Suphan Buri (TACHIN) and surrounded by an atmosphere of homes, including the story of the people in the past. With virtually no modification embellishment Return to the past era. Sam Chuk market boom period. That time people will be native herbs and mineral salts to exchange traded cotton to a merchant mariner

Samchuk Suphanburi

Samchuk Suphanburi ,Set on the banks of the Ta Chin River, Samchuk is one of the country’s most famous and authentic markets. The riverside site has been a trading spot for people living along the Ta Chin since the 18-19th centuries before roads made river travel obsolete. But in 2000, the community gathered and decided to revitalize the old market while preserving its original atmosphere. It turned out to be Samchuk’s largest development plan, taking nine years to complete. The market is now an award-winning example of old market revitalization that’s been copied by numerous markets across the country.

Samchuk Suphanburi Highlights: Visit Khun Chamnong Jeenaruk Musuem to learn the history of the market through the lifestyle of a local noble who lived during the 1910-70s, before getting some black coffee at Raan Cafe Ta Ruea Song next to the entrance from the pier. Slightly odder is Baan Coke, a mini Coca-Cola museum displaying a vast collection of Coke-related products ranging from glasses to vintage ads. As for food, the old market serves up a variety of fare but you should try the noodles with supersized fish balls.

Samchuk Suphanburi Bonus: A few more minutes of driving takes you to Buffalo Villages (www.buffalovillages.com) where you can check out the life of this animal beloved to Thai farmers. Travel further into Singaburi province, which is even closer than Amphur Muang, for the famous Mae La pla pao (grilled snake fish) places along Mae La River and one of Thailand’s largest reclining Buddha statues at Wat Phra Non Chaksi.

KAO HONG

if Samchuk is packed with hungry weekenders, Kao Hong is its quiet counterpart. Started with nine shophouses built by a Thai-Chinese rice tycoon as his trading headquarters on the banks of the Ta Chin River, the market was later expanded to three times the size and roughly divided into three zones: central, lower and the upper markets, where the rows of wooden shophouses are.

Samerng Strawberry Fun Drive

Given the proximity and the ease of access, Rai Nop-Poopah has visitors throughout  the day. Most of them stay for only a few hours to pick the strawberry, take photographs or have some taken and enjoy a meal.  For those who choose to stay the night, small cottages are available but when it gets really crowded then some will just have to resort to the tents, which may be just perfect for those who prefer being close to the nature. But I like our accommodation well enough though with large mattresses, pillows, blankets and a private bathroom with water heater. Later in the evening, the strawberry farm was bathed in golden light and enveloped by idle cool breezes as we strolled through.  We settled in one of the huts and a young staff brought us a cold strawberry juice. Its sweet and sour taste was certain to rid us of our tiredness. My photographer approved of it with a smile.  Soon dinner was served and we managed to clear everything in so little time. The owner and operator shared with us by the bonfire that her farm began to pick up traffic when people posted photographs on the internet. “We are not really growing these strawberries and oranges for sale.  They are solely for the enjoyment of the visitors.” Said Gai.  I like how she turned simple agriculture into popular tourism and how she refrained from building luxurious accommodation that take away from the charm of “the farms”.

Weather continued to be fine the next morning. We changed into rubber boots before entering the actual plantation areas. Armed with a small basket and a pair of scissors, I slowly picked half a basket’s worth of the red fruits. More visitors started to flock into the farm as the morning progressed.  I watched how the new arrivals brimmed with enthusiasm and thought how nice it is to have such an attraction for city people like us.  After all, the chance for peace like this does not come to us every day in the city. Does it?

Baan Hom Tien บ้านหอมเทียน

Baan Hom Tien

asked my photographer amidst the bustle and hustle of Hualamphong Train Station. My response was nothing but a silent smile.

The train arrived in Ratchaburi shortly after nine. We were collected into a large pickup trucks by old friends in the area. Then off we went to Suan phueng where Little Candle 2010 awaits. This installment of

the district’s annual candle festival is the largest by far. “We have about 12,000 candles prepared,” said P Aey the owner of Baan Hom Tien. Visitors can enjoy live music while indulging in fine food and drinks from select places, with little chairs all around. I picked my perfect spot and waited for darkness to come.

Baan Hom Tien

As twilight dwindles, the sky turned dark blue and more people joined the revelry. The yellowish orange hue of candlelight began to glitter across the hill, braving the occasuibak winter breezes. I did not see my photographer again until well after eight. The young man walked up to me and gave his approval of the festivity, “Do they have this every year?” I told him I could not be too sure about next year as a lot of preparation has to go into this. “It would be a shame if we missed this…,” remarked him just when I was captivated by the beauty of the sight before me.
