#MangrovePlanting

To serve as a lung for the people of Chumphon and tourists.

The project aims to restore the mangrove forest to its former glory, providing a natural habitat for wildlife and a source of income for the local community. The project will also help to boost the local economy by promoting ecotourism and sustainable development.

The Electricity Generating Authority of Thailand (EGAT) has partnered with the local community to plant 100 rai of mangrove trees. This project is part of EGAT's ongoing efforts to promote environmental sustainability and support local communities.

🤗 And will continue to expand the planting area in the future.

Lieutenant General Chaiyuth Promsuk, member of the National Legislative Assembly,

Chairman of the Mangrove Forest Restoration Project Committee, presided over the event.

Followed by young actor Man Karin Sattayut, who also joined in planting mangrove forests, adding color to the event.

Many units of interested citizens also participated in the event.

The project was divided into two phases. Phase 1 involved the launch of the "We Do Good with Heart, Plant Mangrove Forests, Honor the King" activity, with the initial planting of 10 rai of mangrove forests on July 19, 2018. Government agencies in Chumphon Province, private sector organizations, various network partners, volunteer groups, teachers, students, and local people participated, totaling over 1,000 people. Subsequently, the planting of mangrove forests in Phase 1 continued through the participatory process of all sectors, until the first 50 rai were completed in July 2018.
.
In Phase 2, EGAT campaigned and invited various network partners to join in planting mangrove forests and organized a tree-planting activity on September 23, 2018. In collaboration with the National Legislative Assembly (NLA), the Office of the Vocational Education Commission, the Radio Protection Station (Swp.FM91), soldiers, police, teachers, students, volunteer groups, etc., an additional 50 rai of mangrove forests were planted. Planting will continue throughout September-October 2018 to reach the target of 100 rai.

We planted mangroves together and smiled happily.

Then let's continue our trip and enjoy the fresh seafood.

Including spicy southern food and various tourist attractions that we visited. We also gained more general knowledge from our 3-day, 2-night trip to Chumphon.

It made us realize that Chumphon, a small province, might be considered just a stopover point when traveling to the south.

But in reality, there are interesting places to visit all along the way. #Chumphon is the gateway to the south and a city with a long history.

This is a simple and short sentence.

Early morning flight to Chumphon

The only airlines flying to Chumphon early in the morning are Nok Air and AirAsia. We took the earliest AirAsia flight and arrived in Chumphon hungry for a delicious breakfast.

Our first stop was at Chok Dee Dim Sum, a restaurant in downtown Chumphon. They offer dim sum for 18 baht per basket and bak kut teh for 100 baht per bowl. We were warned not to eat too much, as we had a seafood feast planned for lunch.

It was hard to resist, but we knew we had to save room for the fresh seafood that awaited us later in the day.

The Shrine of Prince Chumphon Khet Udomsak and HTMS Chumphon

The Shrine of Prince Chumphon Khet Udomsak and HTMS Chumphon are significant historical landmarks in Chumphon Province. The shrine served as the residence of Prince Chumphon, and the HTMS Chumphon, a replica of the royal barge "Chakri Naruebet," stands as a testament to the devotion of the local community.

This replica, measuring 29 meters wide, 79 meters long, and 6 meters high, was constructed through the collective efforts and contributions of the Paknam Lang Suan residents. Their dedication and sacrifice, amounting to 12 million baht, resulted in the creation of this impressive landmark.

Below, you can see the sea and the vast and beautiful Haad Sai Ri beach. We had to take some photos as a souvenir.

We came during a time when the sky was beautiful and clear, but it only stayed clear for half a day. 555

Haad Sai Ree Beach

Haad Sai Ree is a stunning beach characterized by its long stretch of pristine white sand. The sand is soft and inviting, making it a perfect spot for relaxation. The beach is also remarkably clean, adding to its overall appeal.

Haad Sai Ree boasts a variety of restaurants and cafes, offering visitors a range of dining options. Additionally, the beach serves as a picturesque location for photography, capturing the beauty of Chumphon's coastline.

For our first lunch, we stopped at Mae Mai Seafood Restaurant, a beachfront eatery with a refreshing sea breeze. The seafood was incredibly fresh, with the chefs grilling large prawns right before our eyes. The prawns, crabs, and squid were all so delicious that we were left melting with satisfaction.

Next stop, Chumphon Archipelago National Park,
where we were greeted by lush greenery, fresh air, and vast open spaces.

"Chumphon Archipelago National Park is renowned for having one of the most pristine and beautiful mangrove forests in Thailand."

Chumphon Archipelago National Park, formerly known as Hat Sai Ree National Park, was declared a national park in 1999.

It covers five districts: Pathio, Mueang, Sawi, Thung Tako, and Lang Suan.

The park encompasses mangroves, mountains, beaches, the sea, and islands.

It is not only a great place for snorkeling and diving to see coral reefs, but also a destination for ecotourism.

Visitors can enjoy various activities, such as walking through the mangroves on a long wooden bridge or kayaking through the mangroves.

Although Chumphon is just a gateway to the south, it is a beautiful gateway that impresses visitors from the first sight.

Reuan Mai Chay Nam Restaurant, Branch 2
Southern Thai food for the first dinner of the day. Here we have stir-fried bai liang with egg (I ordered this myself, haha), spicy crab curry with cha-phlu leaves (delicious!), and other dishes. I only chose 4 pictures to post, including bai liang boiled in coconut milk, which I didn't really like because it was a bit too oily and rich.

A delicious late-night snack in Chumphon. Don't miss the roti at the municipality.
New menu #RotiKhaoKholCheeseDipMilk is very delicious. Everyone is crazy about the new menu at Roti Farida Chumphon.

The way down to the Tham Sing Coffee shop Tham Sing Coffee, Chumphon Province: Thamsing Coffee has a beautiful view. If the light is good and the sun is shining, it's amazing. I'm sitting here waiting because it's raining, haha.
