SHRINE TO PRINCE OF CHUMPHON (SADEJ TIA)
He may not be well-known to people outside of Thailand, but Admiral HRH Prince of Chumphon (also written as ‘Jumborn‘) is the man who is referred to as the ‘Father of the Royal Thai Navy’. The prince has a fascinating story that involves military prowess, medical skills and magical powers and his enduring legacy means that he is still widely revered amongst Thai people today.
This beautiful and aptly shaped “ship” shaped shrine is not only on a beautiful and stunning part of the coast but a fun and family friendly place to visit.
you can see the super decommissioned Ship https://youtu.be/JMNGXx2T_Ng which sits next to the shrine in its own dry dock for people to explore!
