Prachuap Khiri Khan - Beach and Old Town

Prachuap Khiri Khan ประจวบคีรีขันธ์ is a town in southern Thailand. It is the capital of Prachuap Khiri Khan Province and is on the coast at one of the narrowest stretches in Thailand, only 10 kilometres from the border with Myanmar at Dan Sing Khon in the Tenasserim Hills. The area has large pineapple and coconut industries, in addition to being popular with Thai tourists. The town is about 300 km south of Bangkok by road.

Prachuap Khiri Khan is home to a Royal Thai Air Force base, and was an invasion point for Japanese troops on 8 December 1941, during World War II. A commemoration is held each December to honour the 38 Thai airmen and civilians who died in the fighting against the Japanese 143rd Infantry Regiment in the Battle of Prachuap Khiri Khan.

The area has a feel of Thailand from years past. It still maintains the feel of the sleepy fishing village while still providing anything that a modern traveler could want.

In this video we explore the beach, morning market and the historic old town.
