LOCAL ATTRACTIONS
(Information from Tourism Authority of Thailand)
Phetchaburi, the province in which we are situated, is well-known for its splendid historical parks, ancient
temples, as well as wonderful beaches and caves. Some of our favorite local destinations are:
Wat Kamphaeng Laeng
This monastery was originally a Khmer place of worship constructed in accordance with Bhramanism.
Originally, there were five prangs (Khmer-style pagoda) made of sandstone in the original worshiping place.
When the influence of Buddhism in the region prevailed, it was turned into a Buddhist temple. A Shrine hall
was later constructed.
Today, visitors can only admire the remaining four prangs which remain next to the sandstone walls.
