What to see in Suphan Buri ??

I live in Suphan Buri ;) so I want people to know more about tourist attractions in my province.


The most famous place in Suphan Buri is... Dragon descendants Museum





       The museum is the latest attractions in the province located 200 km northwest of Bangkok. The 300 million baht museum is built in a shape of a huge fiberglass cloud dragon spraying water. It is beautifully and elegantly constructed and the brightly coloured dragon looks alive. It's a very beautiful place in Suphan Buri.

I went there last month :) and it was a very good time for me and my family. There are many interesting things in this museum such as chinese thing about chinese history.
       They use a very interesting computer technology, it focuses on 5000 years of Chinese history and the migration of Chinese clans from China to neighbouring countries such as Thailand, where they established their roots and successful business empires. Inside the Dragon’s body, there is a total of 20 multimedia rooms and each room tells an exciting story about the history of the Chinese civilization which goes all the way to the creation of the planet earth to the emperors of the different dynasties.

Khun Banharn Silpa-archa decided that he would build a unique museum to celebrate the 20th Anniversary of Diplomatic Relations between the People’s Republic of China and Thailand.

Not only a museum which looks like a dragon but also a very beautiful garden nearby. My father likes it a lot and he wants to make a garden like that. :P

Thai : If you want to go there, you can ask them...
'Ja-Pai-Mung-Korn' = I want to go to the dragon museum.





The second one is famous too... "Banharn - Jamsai Tower"




Located in the downtown area on Nang Phim Road, this country's first and highest view point tower overlooking Chaloem Phatthara Rachini Park allows tourists to enjoy     a bird's eye view over the province at a height of 123.25 metres.  Telescopes are available.


It looks like the tower is not really high but if you go there and go up to the top of the tower you will see that it is a high and very interesting place. There is also a big beautiful fountain. 

I went there 2 years ago with my friends and teachers. We had so much fun. We enjoyed playing at the playground. If you come to Suphan Buri, I recommend you to go to Ban-Harn Tower. 

Thai : Everyone in Suphan Buri knows about it and if you get lost you can ask anyone ... 'Hor-Koy Ban-Harn Yoo tee nai ?' it means 'Where is Ban-Harn Tower?' 










3. Buffalo village









They have a lot of buffalos here. Buffalo in Thai call 'Kwai'. There are full of buffalos that are not seen in most zoos. Visitors can touch some of the animals and farmers are there to tell you all about the buffalos and how they are used in farming, in Thai of course. They also have many nice birds in cages that you can get near. The Buffalo Village is open 9:00 to 9:00 every day.

     Honestly, I don't really like buffalos...you know. Buffalos are black and big. It scares me :(
but Buffalo village will show you what that big and black buffalos can do ! and it's amazing !            
You will se buffalo go upstairs , riding a bike :P lots of interesting activities :)

Thai : You can say "Pai-Barn-Kwai" to Tuk-tuk and he/she will take you there !


4. 



Old Sam Chuk Market along Tha-Chin River Old Sam Chuk Market along Tha-Chin River : This Chinese community and old-fashioned market with wooden shop houses remain in Thai original style a century ago. Just a hundred kilometres away from Bangkok.


       You can buy anything here , Sam Chuk 100 years market. I really like to go there with my family and friends. We like to find a delicious snack during the shopping thing. I had so much fun !! I recommend you to go there ! It's not very far from the town and took only about 30 minutes to go there :)

5. Phu Muang Forest Park

Phu Muang Forest Park is covered with mixed deciduous forest and bamboo trees, which make it an ideal home for small fauna like squirrels, tree shrews, rabbits, wolves and palm civets. The park is also home to a number of different species of birds.
