Travel to Narathiwat for 3 days and 2 nights, the forest at the end of the axe handle, the warm home of hornbills At the end of the axe handle of Thailand, amidst the embrace of mountains and lush green forests, Narathiwat, a land of beautiful culture and nature, is waiting for us to experience something special for 3 days and 2 nights. On the path of adventure, learn about the way of life, immerse yourself in nature, and experience the warmth of the happy home of hornbills. This trip is the first time I have visited this city, and it is very exciting. Let's see where I went on this trip. Day 1: First of all, I would like to say hello to all the people of Narathiwat Province. On this trip, I started my journey at Narathiwat Airport, heading to Tak Bai District. I went to Wat Chonlatharasinghe or Wat Phithak Phaendin Thai, an ancient temple with beautiful architecture founded by Phra Khru Opas Phutthakun (Phut), and this temple played an important role in the separation of Tak Bai between Siam (Thailand) and Malaya in 1909. After that, I went for a walk at Saphan Khoi Roi Pee. The old wooden bridge is like a symbol of the city. Experience the riverside lifestyle of the Tak Bai people. This bridge connects Koh Yao and the mainland. In the evening, I went to see the beauty of the southernmost railway station in Thailand, Su-ngai Kolok Railway Station, which has beautiful architecture and is a place to learn about the history of Thai railways. I arrived at this station at around 5:30 p.m. I must say that the light was very beautiful, perfect for taking pictures. Day 2: Early in the morning, I set off for an activity called Low Carbon Tourism at the Linanon Village at the Linanon Community White Water Rafting. Experience the excitement of white water rafting amidst beautiful nature. Here, I felt the love and care that the people have for this river that I can't describe. After that, I went to learn about local wisdom and see traditional weaving at the Ban To Mo Weaving Group. Most of the people here are from Isan, our hometown. I'm so happy that I've come this far and I've met people from the same hometown. 55 In the evening of the same day, I went to see the giant Kapong tree, a huge old tree. Experience the greatness of nature at Hala Bala Forest. I was so excited when my friend who went with me said that it was really big, 29 people hugging it. Day 3: The last morning was another day that I was very impressed with. I headed to Hala-Bala Wildlife Sanctuary, the warm home of hornbills. This trip was another trip that gave me a valuable experience, which was taking pictures of hornbills. And a bird that one person said that it took him 10 years to find. At Hala Bala Forest, there is a beautiful sunrise viewing point called the Two Lands Sea of ​​Mist. At this point, we can see the mountain ranges of our neighboring country, Malaysia. And importantly, if the sky is clear, we will be able to see hornbills. The last place of this trip, I traveled to Sirindhorn Waterfall, a beautiful waterfall in the middle of a green forest. Feel the cool mist. And this is a very important waterfall in the South. This was my first time visiting Narathiwat Province. It was an extremely impressive experience. I learned about the culture, experienced nature. I felt grateful for everything and the happiness that occurred along the way. Narathiwat is not just a southern border city, but a land full of charm. I hope that one day I will come back to visit here again. See you again. #InstantHappinessWhenTravelingThailand #InstantHappinessWhenTravelingNarathiwat #AmazingThailand #Halabala

“Baan Ja” may be just a simple wooden house that looks ordinary to passersby, but for many people, it is a place where their hearts can truly rest. Not because of its luxury, but because it is filled with sincerity and the scent of attachment. In front of the house, there is an old swing that still sways gently in the wind. The large shady trees provide shade all afternoon. The sound of birds chirping by the eaves and the smell of coffee wafting gently from the kitchen behind the house. Everything in “Baan Ja” proceeds slowly and unhurriedly, as if time has been set aside and allowed to flow with the rhythm of nature. Whether it is Ja, the owner of the house, whose warm smile makes strangers feel familiar, or the round table where everyone used to sit and eat together, every corner of this house holds memories tightly. “Baan Ja” is not just a place, but a feeling of coming back to meet something old that has not changed. No matter how fast the world spins, this place is still quiet, still, and always ready to welcome. Sometimes, traveling a long distance doesn’t take us to a new place, but it brings us back to the same place… called “Baan Ja”. #Rainy season travel destination

#Flying with trip #Hundred-year bridge #Here in Tak Bai #Three southern border provinces #Narathiwat This bridge is used to cross between Koh Yao and Tak Bai District. You can walk or ride a motorcycle. Cars cannot enter. When I came here, I searched for information that there is a walking street and a weekend market. Today is so quiet. There is none. Looking in Tak Bai District, most of the shops are closed. But there is a 7-Eleven where you can buy food. Crossing to Koh Yao seems too far, so I took a picture of the bridge and the check-in sign at the southernmost point of Siam as a souvenir that we once loved traveling in Narathiwat.

Today, this temple signifies that this area belongs to Thailand. When the territories were divided, Tak Bai District had a Buddhist temple, so this area was considered part of Thailand. The temple is located near the Tak Bai district center. Observing the structures within the temple, the architecture seems to lean towards Mon style. The day I visited was a Buddhist holy day, and the people making merit had powdered faces like the Mon people. There was also a market selling goods. If you walk to the end of the riverbank, there is a sign marking the southernmost border of the Gulf of Thailand where you can take a commemorative photo. This is probably the southernmost temple I've visited. 🥰 P.S. The atmosphere is safe and worry-free.

The food is reasonably priced and has a wide variety.

Good mood cafe, everything is delicious, the price is not too expensive.

The starting point is that my father likes to drink black coffee, which has a unique bitter taste of coffee. Until he opened his mind and tried fresh coffee, various processes, whether it's dark roast, medium roast, or light roast. Until he realized that coffee is more than just bitterness. Because he tried and opened his mind to many types of coffee, to the level of roasting that affects the smell and taste of each coffee bean. Every cup of coffee we make is handmade because we love drinking coffee. Therefore, we want to pass on good coffee to the people of Tak Bai and everyone who comes to try it that coffee doesn't only have a bitter taste "only". Open daily from 06:00 to 21:00.

Wat Chonlatharasinghe, one of the temples with history and importance in Thailand in Che Hae Subdistrict, Tak Bai District, Narathiwat Province... If you have the opportunity to visit Narathiwat Province, come and pay homage to the great father. He is very sacred, I tell you. Those who believe in the supernatural should not miss it. #HereTakBai #HereNarathiwat

Wat Chonlatharasinghe (Wat Phithak Phaen Din Thai) is located in Tambon Che Ha, Amphoe Tak Bai, Narathiwat Province. It is an old temple built during the reign of King Rama IV. Its distinctive features are its unique architecture, which combines Buddhist, Muslim, and Chinese styles. The landscape around the temple is a riverside atmosphere, which can be a place for tourists to relax. Therefore, it is considered a temple of great value and is a center of local landscape, culture, and architecture. It is also a temple of national historical significance because it is an ancient site of Thai Buddhists that the Thai government used as a reference for demarcation in 1898, which prevented this territory from being annexed to Malaysia, preventing Thailand from losing its independence and becoming a British colony. Therefore, it is nicknamed “Wat Phithak Phaen Din Thai” (history found on the internet). When we first entered the temple, we felt that it was very quiet, very peaceful, and there were few people. Looking around, we saw that the temple itself was quite unusual. The colors and patterns we thought it looked more like a house, but it was in a temple. The area is very spacious. You can walk around the whole place. Anyone passing by can come and visit.

The 100-Year Waiting Bridge is located in Tak Bai District, Narathiwat, about 3 km from the district office, not far from Wat Chontharasinghe. From the Tak Bai Market intersection to the Tak Bai River, you will find the 100-Year Waiting Bridge that crosses the Tak Bai River to Koh Yao, which is adjacent to the sea. It has a fine brown sand beach, a peaceful atmosphere, and beautiful rows of coconut trees. The atmosphere is shady and there is a local lifestyle that is truly Koh Yao. Children will come to run and ride bicycles here with a sense of freshness. The 100-Year Waiting Bridge is 345 meters long. In the past, it was a wooden bridge crossing the Tak Bai River to Koh Yao. However, now a concrete bridge has been built parallel to the old wooden bridge, making it the main route for the locals to travel. The name of the bridge comes from the fact that in the past, the locals of Koh Yao had to travel to the district office by boat. It took 100 years to build a bridge between Koh Yao and the district office, so it was named “100-Year Waiting Bridge”. We really like this place. We like the name of the bridge and the local lifestyle. No matter how many times we go to Narathiwat, we will always go back here. ❤️ #NaturalAttractions #Narathiwat #VisitNarathiwat #Narathiwat beautiful sea #Here is Tak Bai #Tak Bai

Once in a lifetime that we went to Narathiwat and went to Tak Bai District, one of the places that should not be missed is Wat Chontharasinghe. It is a beautiful and classic temple that has been called Unseen Thailand. It also has an important story that helps protect some of the Thai land, so it is called “Wat Phithak Phaendin Thai”. Wat Chontharasinghe is located on the banks of the Tak Bai River in Ban Tha Phru. The weather is cool and comfortable. Every building in the temple is beautiful, unique, and colorful, making it very photogenic. It also looks very old. There is a museum for walking around and learning about the long history of this temple. A place that everyone must come to take a picture of is the sign “Tak Bai, the southernmost point of Siam, a beautiful city on the eastern coast” that we often see in pictures. When we actually saw it, we were very proud that we made it this far. The temple is near Tak Bai Market and near the hundred-year-old bridge. Anyone who has the opportunity to come to Narathiwat should come at least once. #Beautiful temple #Beautiful temples all over Thailand #Old temple #Beautiful temples in Thailand #Thai temples #Narathiwat #Visit Narathiwat #Narathiwat beautiful sea

Stop by Tak Bai at the popular check-in point "Saphan Khoi Roi Pee" This name has an origin. Why Saphan Khoi Roi Pee? Because this bridge is used to connect to Koh Yao. Koh Yao is located opposite the Tak Bai District Office. In the past, traveling from Koh Yao to the mainland had to use a boat route, which was not as convenient as it is today. And the villagers had to wait for almost 100 years. So a wooden bridge was built to connect the island to the mainland, making it easier for the villagers to contact the government at the Tak Bai District Office. Although the current transportation has changed from a wooden bridge to a strong concrete bridge instead, the original wooden bridge is still preserved parallel to it. Therefore, it is a check-in point that tourists like to come to take pictures. I didn't miss stopping by to press the shutter continuously. Before traveling to the end of the Siam border at Tak Bai District, the fish pier and Ratchada Pier. This is the southernmost point of Siam at Tak Bai District. Cross the river to the other side, which is the state of Kelantan, Malaysia. On the way back, I stopped by Tak Bai Market. Buy some chicken and beef satay from a famous shop to give to my friends. It's late afternoon, so I'm heading to Su-ngai Kolok District. #Travel #SouthernTravel #TouristAttraction #OrganizeSeaTrip #Thailand #TripEscapeFromChildrenToTravel .

The first night destination of the Narathiwat trip is Su-ngai Kolok District... I have already booked a hotel there and I also intend to stop by Tak Bai District This is the influence of social studies in high school 555 . Negotiate with the driver and my honorary guide It took about 1 hour. I traveled about 50 kilometers Arrived here, T. Jeh He, Tak Bai District, intended to come to this point "Wat Chontharasinghe or Wat Phithak Phaendin Thai" In the past, it was called Wat Tha Phru or Wat Jeh He named after the village where the temple is located . Later, in 1909, the name was changed to Wat Chontharasinghe which means a temple by the river built by monks with great merit . During the reign of King Rama V, Thailand had a dispute with England about the demarcation of the border. England encroached From the current border to 30 km. King Rama V argued with the British, stating that Wat Chontharasinghe and other temples in this area are truly Thai art and are important Buddhist heritages and should be under the protection of Siam . The British therefore had to postpone the border demarcation by using the Tak Bai River, Su-ngai Kolok as the border instead . This makes Tak Bai District, Su-ngai Kolok District and some parts of Waeng District, Narathiwat Province, which were previously under the administration of the former Kelantan State still part of Thailand . This is the great kindness of King Rama V who was very skilled in negotiation It is the aftermath of social studies + history It is so magical that it attracts me to Tak Bai today #Travel #TravelSouth #TouristAttraction #TripEscapeFromChildrenToTravel

Narathiwat is beautiful and impressive, with a multicultural culture that is worth exploring and visiting.

"Tak Bai, the southernmost of Siam, beautiful sea on the Gulf of Thailand" Today, we will take everyone to visit the southern border town, Tak Bai District, Narathiwat Province. The district's motto is "Koh Yao Beach, a food and beverage hub, the legendary source of Khok It, a market close to the border. Wat Phithak Phaen Din, the land of the farthest reaches of Siam, where three rivers meet." According to the motto, this is an international border trade town. In addition to being a city with international trade, there are also places to visit such as Koh Yao. The highlight of Koh Yao, in addition to the beautiful beach, is the Thai flagpole, which stands tall on Koh Yao. If you come to Koh Yao and don't take a photo to check in with the Thai flagpole, it's considered that you haven't arrived, not to mention Tak Bai. To travel to Koh Yao, you have to walk across the "Saphan Khoi Roi Pee" or ride a motorcycle. Cars cannot cross over. Saphan Khoi Roi Pee is another check-in point. Another place that you must not miss is Wat Chontharasinghe or Wat Phithak Phaen Din Thai, which is called Wat Phithak Phaen Thai because of the separation of territories between Siam and Malaya during the reign of King Rama V. The Siamese side raised Buddhism and this temple as a community of Buddhists, so Thailand did not lose this land to the Malaya. The famous food is "Tak Bai Salted Fish", known as the "King of Salted Fish". When you come to Tak Bai, you can try it or buy it as a souvenir. But the price is a bit high. #Narathiwat Sea Trip #Holiday
