Living in the city, people often feel bored with the hustle and bustle on the streets. Even when walking around, people bump into each other on both sides. Sometimes, we want to escape to a peaceful place with minimal noise and fewer people, where we can walk around, take pictures, and relax until we feel comfortable returning to our usual routine. Fortunately, Bangkok is conveniently located near various provinces, each with its unique attractions. For instance, if you crave waterfalls and mountains, Kanchanaburi is the perfect destination. If you prefer beaches and charming small towns, Hua Hin is the ideal choice. On Friday, August 25th, I felt a surge of boredom, coupled with a desire to take pictures by the sea, with the creamy sand and blue sky as the backdrop. This led to a spontaneous trip the following day, Saturday, August 26th, 2017.

Set the alarm for 7:00 AM. Wake up, shower, get dressed, grab the camera, charging cable, power bank, hat, glasses, wallet, put everything in the backpack, and leave the room to go to Salaya train station. The train departs at 8:57 AM, which is the second train. The first train departs at 8:00 AM, but I wasn't ready in time. 555

We arrived at the train station around 8:30 AM. Fortunately, the Thai train was running late, so we were able to catch the first train, which was scheduled to arrive at Salaya Station at 8:00 AM but arrived at 8:45 AM.


The first impression upon entering the train was the comfortable and stylish blue seats. It seemed that the State Railway of Thailand had significantly upgraded the interior of the train. Everything looked new and quite impressive. We took out our camera to take a picture, but accidentally captured the person in front of us. We apologize for the intrusion.

The initial good fortune of being on the first train turned into misfortune when the train's engine broke down, forcing it to stop at this station. ...


I've been feeling stagnant for a while now. Sitting in the car is hot, so I got out to take some photos.


After approximately two hours, it was finally time to continue.


I haven't even reached Hua Hin yet, but my camera is already full of photos! 555

We arrived in Hua Hin around 2:30 PM.

After disembarking from the train, we headed towards the large tree in front of the station to freshen up after a nearly five-hour journey. We then proceeded to the ticket counter to inquire about return tickets from Hua Hin to Salaya. We were informed that the last train was at 4 pm, a sprinter train costing over 300 baht. We declined and opted for a van instead, as staying overnight was not an option due to a project deadline with friends the following Monday.

Quickly walk to a motorbike taxi to go to Hua Hin Beach. The fare is 30 baht per person, and the driver will drop you off right in front of the beach.

The first feeling upon arriving at the beach was intense heat.

The beach is incredibly beautiful and expansive, offering horseback riding as a unique attraction. My companion was immediately tempted by the prospect of riding a horse along the seashore, but quickly changed their mind upon learning the price. A 300 baht fee was required for a ride, while a mere 50 baht sufficed for a stationary photo opportunity.

Wandering around taking photos, I stumbled upon this one. I love it! It feels so peaceful and calming to look at.

This angle is even better than the one above. I love it the most. It makes me feel so good.

Taking off my shoes, I walked onto the rocks, letting the seawater lap at my feet until I got this picture. The fluttering of my shirt perfectly matched the image I captured...

This is my favorite set of the day. The color of the sand and the sky complement each other beautifully. Taken with a Samsung J7 Prime phone camera and edited with VSCO.

Here is a self-portrait taken with a phone camera and edited using the same program as before.

Another one, this time taken with a camera by a friend who came along.

Three walking scenes, please. Hehe.

We also took some photos for the photographer ...

We strolled and took photos until around 4:00 PM. We then left the beach, as we planned to return around 5:00 PM. Before leaving, we stopped by the beach restroom, which cost 5 baht per person.

And stopped to buy water at the aunt's shop in front of the beach entrance and asked the aunt about walking to the van queue. The aunt answered very well, answered very detailed. When I got the water, I walked along as the aunt told me.


This is a restaurant that we really like. We really like the decoration of this restaurant.


And she secretly took a picture of me when I wasn't looking. 555 I really wasn't paying attention.

Note: The original text is empty, so the translation is also empty.

Passing by this place, I thought, "Wow, it's beautiful! Is it a restaurant or something? They've really gone all out." Then I looked at the other side and realized, "Oh, it's a restaurant."

The sentence is already in English and does not require translation.


We strolled from the beach to the van terminal, which took about 30 minutes. The terminal is located on Soi 51. The return ticket to Sai Tai Mai cost 180 baht. We arrived at Sai Tai Mai around 8:30 PM and took bus 515 back to Salaya.

This was a very spontaneous trip. It's a shame we couldn't stay overnight. If you have the chance, we recommend staying overnight so you can visit the Talad To Rot, Plearn Wan, and other interesting places in Hua Hin. Hua Hin is like a small town with a high level of uniqueness. It has a distinct identity, and the decoration of the city, buildings, and houses are all in the same style. We loved it.

Summary of expenses ...

- Free round-trip train fare

  • Motorcycle taxi fare to the beach - 30 baht.

- The return van fare from Hua Hin to Salaya is 180 baht.

210 baht per person (excluding food)
