Hua Hin
Overview
Hua Hin is a beach town where Bangkok locals escape the city. Less rowdy than Pattaya, the night market serves good seafood – try the crab. Trains run from Bangkok. The beach stretches long enough for morning walks without too many crowds. The local life mixes with retired Europeans at coffee shops. The old royal palace is a must see and golf courses draw players year-round.
