Ampawa .. Samut songkhram

I've been to Samut Songkhram.

Samut Songkharm is the smallest province of Thailand
Subdivided into 3 districts which are Muang district,
Ampawa district and Bang Khon Tree district
only 72 km. from Bangkok , taking around 2 hours.

North connects with Rachaburi.
South connects with Phetchaburi and Gulf of Thailand.
East connects with Samut Sakhon.
West connects with Phetchaburi and Ratchaburi.



@ Bang kung Temple .. Ampawa district


Temple hall.


outdoors.




Bang kung Temple,
you will see the temple hall which is wholly covered
with 4 species of plants
wich are Pho , Sai , Krai and Krang.
It was regarded as one of Unseen in Thailand.



Next is King Rama ll Memorial Park.


Traditional Thai style house
situated in King Rama ll Memorial Park.


This park was built to King Rama ll 's mother honor.
It was also the birthplace of King Rama ll.

In the park, the interesting thing is King Rama ll
museum having 4 buildings built in traditional Thai style.


The museum displays ancient art objects and the lifestyle
of people during early Rattanakosin period.


The park and museum are open daily.
