Petchaburi's Historic Palaces and Ancient Temples - Private Tour from Hua Hin

Phetchaburi is one of Thailand's oldest cities and is known for the most famous palace is the Summer Palace of King Rama 5 on Khao Wang Hill which entire grounds consist of royal halls, palaces, temples and other buildings elegantly built in a balanced Thai, neoclassical Western and Chinese architectural style. The old palaces were converted into museums that displayed royal amenities used by King Rama IV and King Rama V. Wat Mahat Temple is a mixture of the late Ayutthaya and early Rattanakosin styles with an adaptation of the ancient Khmer monastery. Khao Luang Cave Temple was built during the reign of King Chulalongkorn and has a hole through which sunlight comes and shimmers on stones, making the cave colorful and allowing visitors to see all the beauty of the inside of the cave.
