Prachuap Khiri Khan: ป่าสงวนแห่งชาติ - Ko Lam - Raiva Island
Prachuap Khiri Khan occupies a narrow coastal plain on the Gulf of Thailand in Prachuap Khiri Khan Province. Along Ao Prachuap, the provincial capital faces the offshore forms of Ko Lam and Raiva Island, which help define this stretch of coast. Inland, the Tenasserim Hills rise towards the Myanmar border. Khao Chong Krachok, a steep hill topped by a Buddhist temple, is the city’s best-known landmark. Prachuap Khiri Khan was also the site of fighting in 1941, when Thai forces resisted Japanese landings. National reserved forest land nearby emphasizes the close meeting of settled shoreline and protected terrain.

Prachuap Khiri Khan has served as the administrative centre of its namesake province on Thailand’s Malay Peninsula since the 20th century. The town follows the curve of Ao Prachuap on the Gulf of Thailand, where steep limestone hills rise close to the waterfront. Khao Chong Krachok, topped by a Buddhist temple and known for its macaques, is the city’s defining hill; a long stairway leads above the bay. Nearby Ao Manao is associated with Thai resistance to Japanese landings in December 1941, an important episode in the town’s wartime history.
