Trips Thailand: Amphoe Sam Chuk, Suphanburi

What to see...
  • Old Market by Tha Chin River (ตลาดริมน้ำร้อยปี) The market is located on Highway 340, by Tha Chin River next to Amphoe Sam Chuk District Office. This Chinese community and old-fashioned market with wooden shop houses remain in Thai original style a century ago. Visitors may be surprised to see a photograph shop, which remains taking pictures by a century-old camera, herbal drugstore, or enjoy tasting local sweets, sipping old-fashioned local-style coffee by the river. The three-story building dedicated to be a museum can draw visitors back to the yesteryears by different photographs featuring the way of life in the last era.
  • Wat Sam Chuk (วัดสามชุก) Located at Mu 1 of Tambon Sam Chuk, some 600 metres off Highway 340, the ancient temple houses the Buddha footprint, sandstone Buddha statue from the Ayutthaya period, and a pair of bronze swans. There is no evidence to prove when this temple was built. An annual festival is held to honour and celebrate the footprint. For more information, call Tel. 0 3557 1791, 0 3557 1108, 0 3557 2755.
  • Wat Lat Sing (วัดลาดสิงห์) Located in Tambon Ban Sa on Liap Khlong Chonlaprathan Road, 7 kilometers off Highway 3038, the temple was formerly called Wat Ratchasing. After Phra Maha Upparacha of Burma was killed by King Naresuan on the elephant back duel, the Burmese kingdom executed King Naresuan’s sister, Phra Suphan kanlaya, who had been held hostage in Burma, in revenge. So, a legend says that King Naresuan the Great founded the temple to honour his sister. The temple houses a 500-year-old Buddha image and three pagodas standing for King Naresuan, King Eka Tossarod, and Phra Suphan kanlaya.
  • Bueng Rahan (บึงระหาร) The large lake is 38 kilometers from Amphoe Mueang. Restaurants and the rest area around the lake make it a nice place for relaxing
