Travel Destinations - Prachuap Khiri Khan Province
Prachuap Khiri Khan is located
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 Khiri Khan is now divided into 7 districts and 1
sub-district: Amphoe Muang Prachuap Khiri Khan, Amphoe Bang
Saphan, Amphoe Bang Saphan Noi, Amphoe Hua Hin, Amphoe Kui
Buri, Amphoe Pran Buri, Amphoe Thap Sakae, and King Amphoe
Sam Roi Yot.
