Chonburi is in the East of Bangkok and merely 2 hours drive. It is s province situated near the bay and the famous Pattaya is one of the towns. You can find pretty parks along the bay in this area and of course a sunset that will take your breath away! The place has an area of 4,363 sq.kms.
Anyhow, There is evidence that Chonburi has existed ever since the Ayuttaya period. The province was originally composed of 3 small towns which were BangSai , Bangplasoi and Bangphra. They were subsequently formed in to the province of Chonburi during the reign of KING RAMA V. |
