Ancient city, long-standing history, roasted coconut, sweet palm sugar, sacred city pillar shrine, progressive economy, delicious pork leg, unique Nางรอง dialect.

I have long intended to visit the Light - Sound - Color festival at Prasat Muang Tam in Buriram. This time, I finally had the chance to go after waiting for so long. In the past, I would have looked for accommodation near Buriram city. However, nowadays, there is a wealth of information available, and I have learned that staying in Nang Rong district would make it easier and faster to travel to and from the festival.

Small Bus Station, Nang Rong District

In addition, there are currently many bus lines that pass through and stop at Nang Rong District, directly in front of Nang Rong Hospital, especially the buses of the company Nakhonchai Air, which we think are quite comfortable and worry-free. From Nang Rong Hospital, we can take a songthaew to the small bus station. Nang Rong Hotel is located in the small bus station area.

Nang Rong Budget & Boutique Hotel is a small budget hotel with a modern and stylish design. It is clean and comfortable, and is located in a central location that is convenient for travel from Bangkok, tourist attractions, and food and shopping. The hotel offers a variety of room types to choose from, and the prices are reasonable. I personally like the design of the hotel, both inside and out, because it is stylish and cute.


Nang Rong Budget & Boutique Hotel or Nang Rong Hotel

We left Bangkok by the 8:30 a.m. bus and arrived at Nang Rong around 3:30 p.m. So, we took the opportunity to walk around the hotel while waiting for the bus and the time to travel to Muang Tum Castle, where there will be a light and sound show tonight for the first night.

The journey to the light-sound-color show is not difficult. We can take a public bus, but the return trip at night may be a bit inconvenient. Therefore, it is better to hire a car to pick us up and make an appointment for the pick-up time. We can contact the driver directly or through the hotel for better security and peace of mind. Personally, I hired Mr. Phong, a local driver, to drive for me on this trip. You can **contact Mr. Phong at 086-076-0769**. The price depends on the agreement, either by location or by day.

The interior design of the Nang Rong Hotel features rare images of the restoration of the Phra Wihan Stone Castle, allowing guests to admire the historical significance of the site.

The Second Floor of the Hotel

The spacious and airy lobby creates a sense of openness and comfort, making the walk to the guest rooms feel less confined.

Our room is located on the 3rd floor. It is a compact double room, not too small or too spacious. It is decorated in clean white with a towel folded into a lotus flower shape, along with various information about the accommodation. The walls are adorned with pictures of the life of the Nang Rong people.

The airy bathroom saves energy by utilizing natural light, providing ample brightness.

The staircase to the 3rd floor has a stylish floor sign.

The door of the room is a semi-modern, semi-vintage style, which is another cool style.

In addition to the rooms on the upper floor, there are also bungalow-style rooms on the lower floor, suitable for the elderly and those who are too lazy to climb stairs, even though we know it's good for our health. Haha!

The morning atmosphere at Nang Rong Hotel still retains the traditional way of life of the villagers. Shops are open, monks are on their alms rounds, the morning market is bustling, and food carts are plentiful.

Although the hotel is not particularly large and the price is not high, the Nang Rong Hotel offers a stylish breakfast service, including coffee and deep-fried dough sticks. This is a treat that I rarely enjoy at home, as it is difficult to find a shop that sells delicious deep-fried dough sticks. Additionally, I often wake up late. The deep-fried dough sticks here are sweet, savory, and delicious. Most importantly, they are all-you-can-eat.

Legendary Breakfast for Late Risers

The text describes the convenient location of a hotel in relation to various markets in the area.

Here's the breakdown:

  • Original Text:

    • Mentions a hotel called "Nang Rong" and its proximity to different markets.
    • Describes the hotel's location as being close to a morning market behind it and a breakfast market in front of it, near the small bus stop where the speaker arrived the previous day.
    • Additionally, it mentions a night market called "Tham Mueang Tham Mo" that operates on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday evenings.
    • The hotel, Nang Rong, is conveniently located near various markets, making it an ideal base for exploring the local scene.
    • A morning market is situated behind the hotel, while a breakfast market can be found in front, close to the small bus stop where the speaker arrived earlier.
    • Furthermore, a night market called Tham Mueang Tham Mo operates on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday evenings, offering a vibrant atmosphere and diverse goods.

Before heading to the bus station, let's stop by the nearby morning market. This area is renowned for its breakfast options, boasting a diverse selection of food vendors. Aside from the usual breakfast staples like deep-fried dough sticks, coffee, and soybean milk, the market is particularly known for its three vendors selling grilled chicken with sticky rice.

Which restaurant is delicious? We don't know. We just choose the one that looks good and has a lot of people waiting. And we weren't disappointed. The chicken is huge, with a breast and wing for 40 baht. The sticky rice for 5 baht is enough to fill you up. The taste is amazing. The chicken is sweet with a salty and savory flavor. The meat is tender and juicy. We ate until we were full and finished everything because it was so delicious.

After a satisfying meal, consider exploring the local morning market. This market offers a diverse selection of fresh ingredients and prepared dishes, catering to the daily culinary needs of the neighborhood. Residents frequently visit to purchase ingredients for their meals, ensuring access to fresh produce and a variety of culinary options.

The fresh vegetables on sale are very affordable, costing only 5-10 baht per bunch. It's a pity I haven't returned home yet, otherwise I would buy some vegetables to bring back for my mother. The reason for the low prices is that some of the vegetables are grown locally, ensuring they are not only affordable but also fresh and new.

Despite the city's rapid development, the traditional way of life persists in this rural community. Early mornings still offer the heartwarming sight of young monks carrying alms bowls, following the lead of senior monks on their daily alms rounds. The urge to invite them to receive offerings arises, but their swift pace often leaves one hesitant.

Villager's way of life, Market way of life

The bustling market offered not only fresh ingredients but also a variety of ready-to-eat meals. From steaming bowls of "guay jub" and silken tofu pudding to sticky rice with grilled pork and succulent roasted chicken, the choices were endless. However, one particular vendor caught my eye. A muscular man with intricate tattoos adorning his arms, clad in a bright yellow apron that stood in stark contrast to his tank top, was selling steaming bowls of rice porridge.

A delicious-looking bowl of rice porridge, priced affordably at only 30 baht, comes with both egg and pork. When asked if it sells well, the vendor replied that it sells out every day, without fail. As we ate and chatted, our stomachs full, we prepared to continue our journey, remembering the adage: "An army marches on its stomach."

Porridge costs 30 baht per cup.


We would like to express our gratitude to the sponsors for providing accommodation and travel expenses.
