2025 Phunphin Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in April)

This year is the first time traveling to Surat Thani for Songkran 💦 I intended to visit my father. My father drove a car and took a boat from Koh Phangan. As for me, I traveled by Xmax motorcycle from Bangkok to Surat Thani. We drove for 12 hours straight, took some breaks, and met many bikers on the way. I was not lonely at all. 🚗🛵 We stayed at B2 Surat Thani Boutique & Budget Hotel, opposite the City Pillar Shrine. The room was good and the location was good. The view from the accommodation was beautiful. We stayed here for 2 nights. - On the first day, we paid respects at the City Pillar Shrine. It was very beautiful. At night, the lights were turned on. We took my father to eat by the Tapi River at Riverside Restaurant. The atmosphere was very good. We could see the view of the Naris Bridge with its beautiful lights. - On the second day, we left the city to visit the Ratchaprapha Dam. On the way, we stopped to pay respects at Wat Thung Siat and played in the clear water at Khlong Nam Sai. There were a lot of people during the festival. The water was really clear. This is another place I recommend visiting. When we arrived at the Ratchaprapha Dam, it was very beautiful. The view was good, the atmosphere was good, and the water was very beautiful. On the way, it was surrounded by mountains. It was a pleasant view. Many people went there. Don't miss this place. (They also have a boat ride to see the island, but we didn't have much time.) ⛵️ Back to the city Continue playing water at Naris Bridge 💦 There were a lot of people, a long traffic jam along the river. Playing in the water was so refreshing. What I liked was that there were a lot of people playing in the water but there were no fights. It was a beautiful Songkran water festival with a beautiful view, both the view of the City Pillar Shrine and the view of Naris Bridge with beautiful lights, colorful lights, and spectacular water splashing. Surat Thani did it 1000000%. I was not disappointed at all with my intention to go. I will definitely go again. There are still many places to visit (next time, see you at Samui). ❤️🤍💙 #VisitSuratThani #Songkran2568 #NarisBridge #TapiRiverside #ClearWaterCanal #RatchapraphaDam #NiceHotel

#VisitHistoricalSite #tripFreeAccommodation #100WaysToVisit Wat Nam Rop is an ancient temple, believed to have been built in the Ayutthaya period. The important thing in the temple is the chapel, which is built with wooden pillars. It is a Thai-style building with a gable roof, a gable roof, and bird wings. Supporting 2 floors, the roof is curved like a ship's hull. The chapel walls are low. The beliefs of the villagers that have been told, which Dong himself has heard the story from the old men and women, that this place is very sacred. When the forest floods, only the temple area will not be submerged. This is the origin of the name "Wat Nam Rop" (Ban Dong is only 500 meters from the temple). There are also 2 more brick pagodas located in front of the chapel on the east side, and the base of the brick pagodas with a small twelve-angled corner, leaving only the base and the lower part of the bell on the north side of the chapel (Phra Chao Fa and Phra Khao Or), which are the spiritual support of the villagers. I came to pay homage and ask for blessings. Dong himself once asked for a blessing for his uncle who had an accident to survive by making a vow that if his uncle Dong survived, he would ordain as a monk for 9 days. And it happened successfully. 🙏 Antiques in the temple include a standing Buddha statue in the attitude of forbidding relatives, a bronze Buddha statue in the attitude of holding an alms bowl, a bronze Buddha statue in the attitude of forbidding the ocean, a bronze Buddha statue in the attitude of holding an alms bowl covered in lacquer and gold, and a stone inscription made of slate in Thai script, inscribed in 2391 BE. It is assumed to be an abbreviation of the Kalpana document of Wat Nam Rop. An important tradition that has been practiced since the time of our ancestors is “Chak Phra Bok” which takes place on the 8th day of the waxing moon in the 5th month of every year. Villagers and descendants often come to gather relatives. Today, we will sing, dance, and make music in a lively and joyful manner. Currently, “Wat Nam Rop Historical Park” has been announced as an ancient site in the Royal Gazette, Volume 114, Special Section 80, Page 5, dated September 12, 1997. The area of ​​the historical site is approximately 81 square wah. #VisitTemples #SuratThani 📍Address: Located in Village No. 1, Ban Nam Rop, Nam Rop Subdistrict, Phunphin District, Surat Thani Province

#2月好地方2025 The prices at the night market next to Surat Thani Railway Station are amazing! It is only a five-minute walk from the train station. Many people come to Surat Thani to transfer to other places, but they ignore this local night market. The prices of all items are between 10 and 40 baht. Locals also buy large and small bags and take them home to eat. Here we recommend mango sticky rice, lychee juice, fried shrimp cakes, grilled chicken skewers and coconut cakes, especially the coconut cakes. The freshly fried cakes are served with coconut shreds and are not too sweet, making them perfect as desserts after meals. The stalls are almost unique and each one is very popular. The prices are cheap and the portions are medium, making it just the right size for eating while strolling.
