Thailands oldest beach resort town, Hua Hin and its twin Chaam have
endeavoured to preserve their old world charm and casual elegance.
Favoured by Thai Royalty, the town owes its existence to King
Prajadhipoks (Rama VII) decision to build a summer palace here.
What set Hua Hin on the road to prosperity was rst the construction
of the railway line during the reign of King Rama VI (1910-1925),
which was soon followed by the establishment of the Railway Hotel
and the Royal Hua Hin Golf Course. But even more important was the
construction of the summer palace, the Klai Kangwon Palace, meaning
far from worries, by King Rama VII in 1926 (The palace is today
the permanent residence of Thailands ruling monarch His Majesty
King Bhumibol). Once Hua Hin became the ofcial Royal Retreat, Thaiaristocracy ocked to the newly discovered seaside resort, building
summer homes in its bucolic surroundings. For long a cherished secret
of Bangkokians who retreated to it on the weekends, Hua Hin today
increasingly nds itself on the international tourist map thanks to the
western tourists who stumbled on Hua Hin. Ever since it has been on
the tourist trail. Yet it must be said, despite its growing popularity
Hua Hin has retained its provincial charm.
