How to get there - You can take a long bus to Chumphon. The destination is Sawi District. Or you can take a train to Sawi. Then the accommodation will pick you up and take you to the accommodation. There will be a fee for this. Personally, I had a bad experience when I missed the train, lol. So I took a plane to Surat Thani and then took a van to Sawi. If you come by private car, I recommend a four-wheel drive. But it's convenient. Along the way, there are beaches to stop and sit and take pictures. It's also peaceful. Tourist attractions - Ao Kram Homestay, Sawi District, Chumphon Province I don't recommend coming alone because it will be expensive. The transportation fee is one part.

Hello, today I'm dragging my boyfriend to introduce another place that's good for my heart <3 (playing music) ... "Doi Tapang" is not just a name that's awesome. It's unseen. Did you know that Chumphon also has a sea of ​​fog? At night, the forest sea mixes with the sea of ​​light from squid fishing boats. Wake up in the morning and enjoy the sea of ​​fog. #Tag a friend #Drag your boyfriend #Share it around Actually, Doi Tapang is the name of Tapang, the person who pioneered this mountain. Tapang is still there. If you go there any day, you might get to see Tapang in person. Tong went there for the second time. The first time I went in the evening, it was already beautiful. This time, I went up early in the morning. I woke up at 3 am, took a shower, got dressed, and left the house at 4 am. I stopped to fill up the tank and bought some food. I reached the top of the mountain at around 5 am. The sun was rising. I was amazed from the moment I climbed the mountain. But because the road was quite shaky, I'll skip the pictures from that time. I'll make a clip for you to watch. Put a thumb up first. Whyy ... The tent rental fee is 150 per tent, not per person. Very very cheap (You have to bring your own barbecue or food). *** And don't forget to take your trash home with you. Let's all do our part so that nature can be with us forever. ^_^ Now, to avoid wasting time, let's go see the pictures now. I wonder if anyone will see all the pictures. There are so many pictures, I want to post them all. I've already selected them. If anyone has any questions, you can leave your questions below. I'll try to find the answers for you. ^^ Or if there are any mistakes, please tell me and I'll fix them. #Dragging my boyfriend, but he didn't go. 55 #Chumphon review #Sea of ​​fog #Sea #unseenthailand #Chumphon travel #Doi Tapang #chumphon #photooftheday #Heaven on earth #Southern Thailand #travel #Where to travel this summer

No need to go all the way to Bali, Chumphon has one too. A Balinese-style resort that has just opened, located by the sea in Lang Chuan District, Chumphon Province, named the resort (Velatalay Resort). We checked in and it didn't show up. Friends, you can search for it on GPS. We have attached the picture in the post. It takes about 40 minutes to drive from Chumphon city. The atmosphere here is quiet. The rooms are decorated in a minimalist style, white, and easy on the eyes. Their swimming pool is also good. For those who bring children, it is very suitable for a family vacation. We booked a room next to the swimming pool for 2,500 baht, including dinner and breakfast. The room can accommodate 2 people. We got room 8. As soon as you open the door, you can jump into the pool. 🏊‍♀️ The highlight here is the free ATV ride. There is also free kayaking service. It's a full adventure for everyone. It's very good value for money. We were very happy on this holiday trip. We were fully satisfied with our relaxation. We didn't have to travel far.

Southern way of life, using monkeys to climb coconuts is normal. When free from work, the owner will bring the monkeys to compete in climbing coconuts. Today, it is held at the temple grounds. Two areca palms are planted at the same size. Pull the pulley to lift the coconuts to the top of the pole. Then blow the whistle to signal the monkeys to go up and collect them. Whichever side can finish all the coconuts first wins. There are coconuts with 3, 4, 5 pieces, depending on the competition. There are many types of monkeys, small, medium, large. Don't even mention their speed. It's hard to keep up. The cheering section is also fun. The villagers can sell their products. The locals have income. Money is donated to the temple and schools. It depends on where the competition is held. It is not animal cruelty like the Westerners who banned Thai coconut milk. It is "the villagers' way of life, a community game."
