When I was young, the answer I got when I sang 'Where is Spring?' was 'Spring is in the lush mountains, there are red flowers and green grass, and there are singing nightingales.' Growing up, I longed for Sam Hoi's lyrical poems, 'Face the sea, spring flowers bloom.' Now when you ask me what spring is like in my eyes, I'll tell you it's able to breathe fresh air, with everything except green trees and red flowers, and there's the sea. I can easily hum a song, without pressure, but full of vitality and new life, like the feeling of Chanthoen.

The Kung Wiman Coastal Road in Chanthoen Prefecture, a S-shaped winding road along the coast, brings the feeling of being blown by the sea breeze and the fresh air, plus the stunning sea view, making it one of the filming locations most favored by Thai movies and advertisements.

The most beautiful coastal highway: Kung Wiman Coastal Road

Kung Wiman Coastal Road in Chanthoen Prefecture, a winding S-shaped road along the coast, brings the feeling of being blown by the sea breeze and the fresh air, plus the stunning sea view, making it one of the filming locations most favored by Thai movies and advertisements.

It's said that the most beautiful scenery is on the road. Here, it's a true reflection. The locals have also set up a Noennangphaya Viewing Platform for the best viewing angle, allowing you to appreciate the scenery at your leisure.

In the evening, watching the sunset on Chao Lao Sea Beach while watching the waves, when tired, come back to the shore to eat seafood, is a perfect vacation experience. The price in Thailand is already cheaper than domestic, and it's even more affordable in Chanthoen, allowing you to easily achieve seafood freedom.

Paradise on Earth: Pliew Waterfall

Pliew Waterfall is the 'one water' mentioned in the summary of Chanthoen attractions. It became famous because Thailand's Rama V King said a century ago that there is no place in the world as beautiful as this waterfall that is less than 20 meters high.

Pliew Waterfall is also called Pliew Waterfall in English. 'Pliew' in Thai means 'floating', and the waterfall is named because it looks like flowing hair fluttering in the wind. As soon as you enter the park, you can see a sign of a large fish, thinking this fish might be a local specialty. There is also a rare phenomenon here: a large group of black fish swim in the river. It's said that they were released, so they are not caught, and they grow bigger and bigger as they grow.

Like blue porcelain: Blue Temple

Many people know that Thailand has blue temples in Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai. Surprisingly, there is also a unique blue temple in Chanthoen, which is not as blue as the two previous ones. The blue temple is like blue porcelain, exquisite.

Chanthoen Blue Temple (Wat Paknam Kheam Nu) was built in 1991, near Wang Ta Not Canal, and the scenery is beautiful. Following the local customs, you need to take off your shoes when entering the temple and mustn't make a loud noise. Because there are few people in the temple, most of the surrounding villages are fishermen, so the temple is not very crowded, giving a feeling as if you are entering a work of art. Here, time will become very slow, with the laziness of spring, and quietly spend time.
