When it comes to Sa Kaeo, there seems to be a lot of emptiness in our minds about tourist attractions. Since Sa Kaeo was just a district of Prachinburi province, until now it has become Sa Kaeo province, but we still know very little about this place.

This trip presents an excellent opportunity to delve deeper into the wonders of Sa Kaeo. Although our time is limited to two days and one night, we will undoubtedly gain a deeper understanding of this captivating province. Situated within close proximity to Bangkok, Sa Kaeo offers a memorable experience, whether for a day trip or an overnight stay. Prepare to be enchanted by the charm of this remarkable destination.





Our journey from Bangkok to Sa Kaeo took approximately two and a half hours. We arrived at our first destination, Kasor Kasivit School, where Mr. Bancha Traiprasert, the school's resident lecturer, informed us that it serves as a buffalo training center for rice farming. The center teaches both humans and buffaloes to coexist in accordance with traditional agricultural practices. Individuals who are interested can bring their own buffaloes to learn rice farming techniques from the experienced buffaloes. The training program consists of ten days: days 1-5 focus on dry-land plowing, days 6-9 involve training in actual fields, and day 10 includes an evaluation. If a buffalo fails the evaluation, it must undergo an additional five days of remedial training. The school also offers various activities to educate farmers on diverse agricultural practices, including rice cultivation, earthen house construction, and fertilizer production.

This school also has a greenhouse showcasing tools and equipment used for rice farming. The area is divided into four sections: 30% for planting, 30% for a pond, 30% for rice paddies, and 10% for living quarters, following the principles of the New Theory of Agriculture.







This is a simple HTML code snippet containing a horizontal rule (<hr />) within a paragraph (<p>). The <br /> tag represents a line break within the paragraph.

Here's the breakdown:

  • <p>: This tag defines a paragraph element.
  • <br />: This tag inserts a line break within the paragraph.
  • <hr />: This tag creates a horizontal rule, which is a line that spans the entire width of the page.

Therefore, the code snippet creates a paragraph with a line break followed by a horizontal rule.





The Kasalongsiwit School also has a shop selling food, drinks, and souvenirs. The Kwai Kanong shop has a menu of drinks that are just fun to see, including Kwai Kanong Thung, Kwai Phueak, and Kham Liang. As for the food menu, it is simple but pays attention to detail. For example, the rice is infused with turmeric, making it a very appetizing yellow color. Other menus here use all the ingredients within the project. There is ma-prao juice collected from the tree, which is fragrant and refreshing. And we ended with a sweet dessert that was cool and refreshing to relieve the heat during this midday period.






Following our journey, we boarded a vehicle and continued to our next destination. This location features a demonstration plot for agricultural practices and a diverse orchard. The initiative originated from a royal decree to develop the flatland at the foot of the Banthat mountain range. Subsequently, the project expanded to benefit the surrounding communities. This site serves as a learning center, akin to a living natural museum, and is affectionately known as the "King's Garden."

Following this, we headed to a royal initiative project aimed at improving the irrigation system in the foothills, resulting in the construction of the Tha Krabak Reservoir. This large reservoir serves as a source of water for consumption and domestic use. Surrounded by both naturally occurring and planted trees, the area has become a beautiful natural tourist destination.

During the day, the sky was bright and clear, with white clouds forming various shapes like a painting, making us forget the heat for a while. Unfortunately, we didn't have enough time to wait for the sunset, as many people said it was another beautiful moment. We should come and see it with our own eyes someday.






We visited the first and only mature bamboo plantation in Thailand, planted by His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej (Rama IX) and the royal family during their visit to Sa Kaeo province. Just seeing the trees that the King planted made us feel like the song we had always heard, both beautiful, magnificent, and grand.

We also visited another reservoir, the Khlong Klam Reservoir. Although it is not as large as the first one, it has a good environment and a former military base of the 122nd Company, which we could walk up to. We sweated a little.





In close proximity, the Wildlife Breeding Station at Khlong Klam was established upon the initiative of Her Majesty the Queen. It serves as a breeding and propagation center for rare and endangered wildlife species. The station houses a diverse range of animals, providing care and rehabilitation until they are ready for reintroduction into their natural habitats. Over time, numerous animals have been successfully released back into the wild, contributing to the conservation of these valuable species.





After a long day of traveling and exploring, we arrived at our accommodation in the evening. As we unpacked and settled in, our stomachs began to rumble. The surrounding area was shrouded in darkness, and our vehicle continued to move forward. As we drove, speculation and anticipation grew among the passengers. Finally, we spotted lights in the distance, and the vehicle came to a halt. We disembarked one by one and were warmly welcomed by the owners of the farm.

Rai Wan Chan Pen, located in Mueang District, Sa Kaeo Province, is owned by Ms. Chan Pen Intarachart, better known as Champagne X, and her boyfriend Captain Van Wanchai Chumsri. If you're interested in a relaxing stay, they offer tent accommodations, which perfectly complement the ambiance.

Our accommodation for tonight is the Thanasiri Hotel & Resort, conveniently located in the city center, a short distance from the train station. It offers a wide range of amenities, surrounded by nature, including an outdoor swimming pool, spa, and more. The rooms are simply decorated, clean, and have a small kitchenette. The breakfast buffet is available, and additional rooms are under construction in the inner zone, which is expected to be even closer to nature.



This is a simple HTML code snippet containing two tags:

  • <p>: This tag defines a paragraph element. In this case, it creates an empty paragraph with no content.
  • <br />: This tag defines a line break element. It forces a line break within the current paragraph, creating a new line.
  • <hr />: This tag defines a horizontal rule element. It creates a horizontal line across the entire width of the page, typically used to separate content.

Therefore, the code snippet creates an empty paragraph followed by a line break and then a horizontal rule.




On this occasion, the volunteer tourism group participated in the press conference for the project "Promoting and Supporting Tourism in Border Towns 2017: Tourism Activities Following the Royal Initiative (Following in the Footsteps of the Father)" at Pothivijjala, Sa Kaeo Province.

This press conference was a collaborative effort by various parties with the shared goal of promoting Sa Kaeo as a tourist destination and commemorating the reign of His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej (Rama IX).

The event also featured demonstrations of local products, allowing attendees to learn about both food and crafts. Additionally, participants had the opportunity to participate in rice paddy plowing, with students from the Bodhivijjalaya Institute teaching their peers from other institutions about the process and guiding them through hands-on practice. The entire experience was filled with laughter and camaraderie.

Bodhivijjalaya University began to take shape with the goal of involving local residents in education. They collaborated to design an educational system that met the needs of the community, based on the concept of a sufficiency economy. This process involved three years of understanding the community in Sa Kaeo province.

We stopped for lunch at the Phra Prang Dam, the largest dam in Sa Kaeo Province. It is one of the projects initiated by His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej (Rama IX) to dam the headwaters of the Huai Phra Prang stream, which flows from Pang Sida National Park.

Surrounded by nature, this location offers a variety of activities, from relaxing on a raft to swimming or enjoying a meal. The constant breeze provides a refreshing respite from the midday sun.





Nestled amidst the verdant landscapes of eastern Thailand, the majestic Prasat Sdok Kok Thom stands as a testament to the architectural prowess of the Khmer empire. Its name, which translates to "city with abundant reeds in a large swamp," aptly reflects the site's historical significance.

A place not on the map, yet found as the heart desired. Though the stay was brief, the grandeur and mystique of its past were profoundly felt.
