If you have a spare day or two and you don’t mind traveling 35 miles, take a look at Nakhon Si Thammarat. This lively place offers up lots of things to see and do. Among your first few stops here should be Wat Phra Mahathat Woramahawihaan, CentralPlaza Shopping Mall and Somdet Phra Sinagarindra 84 Park. The locals will also probably point you toward Trang, 35 miles away. If you only have time for one attraction here, let it be Cinta Garden. (But we’re also big fans of Trang Stadium and Phraya Ratsadanu Pradit Mahisorn Phakdi Park.)
