2025 Chumphon Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in May)

📍Location: Chumphon is located in Southern Thailand, facing the Gulf of Thailand. It's a relatively undiscovered destination, rarely visited by tourists, and retains a non-commercialized charm. Despite its low profile, it boasts a beautiful coastline, abundant marine resources, and is Thailand's second-largest durian growing region. 🦌Kiam Wooden Bridge The Nong Yai Wooden Bridge spans the vast Monkey's Cheeks Reservoir, built in 1989 to prevent flooding in Chumphon. It's currently being developed into a tourist attraction (still under construction, with no commercial facilities yet). While the wooden bridge itself isn't particularly unique, the area is home to many deer and deer-themed elements. For just 20 baht, you can interact with these adorable creatures. 🚢Kao Matri View Point This hilltop viewpoint offers stunning views of the floating houses at the mouth of the Chumphon River on one side and the stretching coastline on the other. Without excessive entertainment facilities, it's not exactly a "check-in" hotspot, but it's the perfect place to witness a beautiful sunset and enjoy a moment of tranquility. 💰Durian Orchard Chumphon is a major durian-producing region in Southern Thailand, cultivating various durian varieties, primarily Monthong. We were fortunate enough to visit a durian orchard where the owner has over 500 decades-old durian trees laden with ready-to-harvest fruit. Thanks to the owner's hospitality, I tried durian for the first time. It was surprisingly good – no unpleasant odor, just a sweet, soft, and sticky delight! 🙋Overall, while Chumphon may not be a particularly well-known tourist destination, if you appreciate peace, quiet, and natural beauty, it's definitely worth considering.

Tourist attractions in Chumphon Province This is a long suspension bridge in the middle of a lake, which is part of the Nong Yai Monkey Cheek Project under the royal initiative. There are more than 100 deer living on the bridge. But when we went in the afternoon, we didn't see many because the weather was hot. They must be hot. It is recommended to come in the morning or evening. You should see more. Here, you can also feed the deer.

I had the chance to relax and took a train from Hat Yai to Chumphon and visited the Kheam Wooden Bridge at Nong Yai, Chumphon. It's very beautiful! The Kheam Wooden Bridge, which is very old, is over 400 meters long. It's very beautiful, with a cool breeze. The sun is a bit strong, but there's a constant breeze. I recommend going around 4:30 PM - 5:30 PM. This time is perfect for taking beautiful photos. Nearby, there's also the Deer Viewing Bridge. You can walk across to it, as it's in the same area. Visiting here, you get to see two places in one trip: both the Kheam Wooden Bridge and the Deer Viewing Bridge, where you can see rusa deer, chickens, and ducks. You can also feed the deer. It's extremely beautiful and perfect for a family trip or a romantic outing. The photos turn out great. Highly recommended!

I really want to recommend this shop's desserts. I can say that #1 baht is fun to eat with the Khanom Bueang shop in the Chumphon night market area. #Khanom Bueang Thai Kru Jen is the real number one shop in this area. People are constantly queuing up to buy. This shop's Khanom Bueang!! They are small and cute. There are 2 fillings: sweet and salty. They are easy to eat and fun to chew. They are very delicious. While waiting, I secretly watched the vendor making them until my hands were shaking. They are very fast. There are 2 prices: a large box with 20 pieces and a small box with 15 pieces. I chose the small box. It was delicious and not too sweet. The only problem is that the dough softened a bit too quickly. 🎯 : 204/10-11, Tha Tapao Subdistrict, Mueang Chumphon District, Chumphon 86000 📱 : 085-5917947 #GetDiscountsWithoutLuck #100WaysToTravel #trip #tripmoments #TravelChumphon #KhanomBueang #Chumphon

#Southern tourist attractions, very nice atmosphere 🌳🚙 Check-in point in Chumphon #Teamwood bridge #Chumphon monkey cheeks Teamwood is a strong wood, resistant to both saltwater and freshwater. And this bridge was built by the hands of only 7 people. It took 45 days to complete. This bridge is like a symbol of unity and unity among the people of Chumphon. In fact, the original bridge was made entirely of teakwood. If it started to deteriorate, it was repaired. So some steel bars were added, but most of it is still teakwood. The length of the bridge is 290+ meters, S-shaped. It probably means that there may be some obstacles, some twists. Min thinks that if we work together, any obstacle can be overcome. ✌️ This bridge is just a little past the deer watching bridge. It is shady, peaceful, and very beautiful for taking pictures. The bridge also connects to the island in the middle of the water. There will be little chickens walking around. It's super chill. 😃 #Chumphon #MonkeyCheekProject #TravelPlaces #SeaTrip Location: Nong Yai, next to the Deer Watching Bridge, Chumphon Province 🕰️bOpening hours: 8:00 AM - 6:00 PM

The shop has a variety of menus to choose from, and the price starts at only 20 baht!!! Whether it's steamed or fried food, or seafood. When we choose the menu we like, we can take it to the shop to steam or fry. Then the staff will bring it to us at the table. As for other menus that are not in the refrigerator, there will be a paper on the table for us to choose. The dim sum recipe in Chumphon is eaten with a special dipping sauce here. It is a dipping sauce that has pickled chili mixed in, which makes it even more delicious. It is completely different from the taste of eating dim sum in Phuket. 🤣🤣 As for drinks, I recommend... eating it with hot tea, old-fashioned coffee, or something like that because it's something that goes together really well.
