Best places: Tourist attractions in Ban Nong Khon Nuea, Thailand

Parklike Buddhist temple known for its enormous statue of storied monk Luang Pu Thuat.

Surrounded by forested hills, an 18-hole course designed by Thai golfing architect Pirapon Namatra.

👍 Lacking the typical glamour that is present in other temples... This spiritual space still offers a home to the faithfull flock. Several areas closed and only the main pavilion open for new years merit and prayers met with gold leaf and incense. Elsewhere pigeons are flying over.. men are laughing.....

👍👍 Whatever you do, don't just go to the main Temple building. Walk up the 150 meter small path to the Pagoda for the most magnificent views. You can pretty much get a 360 degree view if you go onto both parts East & West of this huge bare rock on which the Pagoda is placed. But for those who suffer fr...

This historical tourist attraction celebrates Thai kings with 7 famed statues, a museum & a plaza.

Jungle-themed attraction with waterslides, plus an obstacle course, multiple pools & concessions.

👍👍 Wonderful variety of food stalls here. Unlike the Cicada Night Market next door, this specialises in just food. For myself, I particularly loved the barbecued meats. Lots of Tables and a Stage where live music is performed. You pay cash at the food stalls rather than Food Card used in Cicada.

Large water recreation complex with 9 slides & 7 different types of pools, plus dining facilities.

Collection of art galleries & studios, plus an open-air cafe & craft workshops hosting classes.

👍👍 This is a very nice and spacious Catholic church with pleasant grounds and a water fountain in front. Priests speak great English and the 10.30 am mass is in English with Thai mass at 7 and 9 am. Inside it is quite modern with nice woodwork above the altar. Inside also has the stations of the cross...

Weekend night market with vendors selling art, clothing, decor & handmade goods, plus entertainment.

🫤 It took exactly 27 minutes to complete the course. We asked why we finished the course so quick and they said “it’s because you were not scared and walked quick”. We booked for the two hour slot at 11am and we only did the activity for 27 minutes. They could’ve let us go around the course once more...

Indoor market selling herbs, plants & local produce, plus chicken or seafood skewers at food stands.

👍👍 Some of the most beautiful views of Hua Hin you will find if you venture all around the various levels on top of this Wat complex. Not too many steps up to the top level either, so it won't tire you out. You can see as far as Sam Roi Yot to the South and all of Hua Hin to the north including incredi...

😐 A good place to take a walk to. Not the cleanest beach to take a swim in Hua-Hin. Descent work out equipment, outside gym sort of. At about 5pm to 6pm o'clock there are a lot of people. But if you will go there early in the morning you might have the luck to have a full work out. Surely needs an u...

👍👍 What a great market on Tuesday. To the front left as you arrive there are multitudes of food stalls. From Pad Krapow in paper, to delicious young fresh coconuts to drink to an amazing rotisserie chicken stand at the front in the road. There are desserts, there’s fried snacks, grilled snacks, curries...

👍👍 Stunning temple. Love the wild animal sculptures here, and the replica of the royal barge. The pagoda at the top of the hill was also very pretty. It was half completed and we were so impressed by what has been built of the temple so far that we wanted to donate money for its construction to contin...

Traditional night marketplace consisting of food vendors & shopping stalls selling clothing & more.

👍👍 A stop that should take you about an hour. It is not far from Hua Hin downtown. You can visit at anytime of the day. The view is nice. You can the sun rise in the morning and you can enjoy the golden orange sun light during the sunset. There are 6 viewpoints to visit around the mountain. All of the...
