Hua Hin History The land at the rock mark belonged to Prince Chakkapong Phuwanart, who built the 2 big palaces, White Palace first and then Grey Palace, with many small houses, which later became “Ban Jakkapong”, Malia hotel, and finally the Hilton hotel today.
While Klai Kangwon was being built, Prince Kampangpet Akarayothin (founder of the Burachat family) had “Chatchai” market built on the land of the royal treasury, designed with 7 consecutive vaults to remind people that the market had been built in the reign of King Rama VII. This market, called “Chatchai” market, was also said to be the cleanest market in Thailand at that time. Chatchai Market and the Rot Fai or Huahin hotel later became Huahin landmarks. Klai Kangwon palace was in fact more of a holy place than just a tourist destination. Ever since the completion of the southern railway, connecting to the Malaysian border, Huahin has been know as the most famous vacation destination in Thailand. Tourists always come here to relax and enjoy various activities; swimming, fishing, and playing golf thanks to the “Huahin Royal Golf Course”, accounted as the international standard golf course of Thailand. | ||||
