Hua Hin Train Station @ Hua Hin, Thailand

DSC_2393

When you are travelling in Hua Hin, Thailand, you will find a lot of this sign standing along the road. No matter where you go, you will find this; along the road, or in the postcard, or even made as souvenirs (just like the small tiny one behind this large sign)


Wonder Why?


One of the famous attractions in Hua Hin is the railway station and it is actually the sign of train station in Hua Hin.

The train station is built in the reign of King Rama VI. It is a wooden building with Thai concept and painted brightly in yellow and red.

Fancy a train ride to Hua Hin? 
You can take a train from Butterworth.

There is this royal waiting room just next to the train station

Hua Hin is a royal seaside getaway town. In those old days, train is the only alternative way (besides boat) to get to Hua Hin from Bangkok. Therefore, this waiting room is built for the royal family.
