Travel Reference
In-Depth Information
Most visitors to Trang are in transit to nearby islands, but if you're an aficionado of cul-
ture, Thai food or markets, plan to stay a day or more. It's an easy-to-manage town where
you can get lost in wet markets by day and hawker markets and late-night Chinese coffee
shops by night; at nearly any time of the year, there's likely to be some minor festival that
oozes local colour.
Most of the tourist facilities lie along the main drag, Th Praram VI, between the clock
tower and the train station.
Sights
Trang is more of a business centre than a tourist town. Wat Tantayaphirom OFFLINE MAP

Buddha that's mildly interesting. The Chinese Meunram Temple OFFLINE MAP GOOGLE MAP ,
between Th Wisek-kul and Th Ratsada, sometimes sponsors performances of southern
Thai shadow theatre. It's also worth strolling around the large wet and dry markets on Th
Ratchadamnoen OFFLINE MAP GOOGLE MAP and Th Sathani OFFLINE MAP GOOGLE MAP .
