San Chao Phra Shiva Shankar (ศาลเจ้าพระศิวะศังกร) is a small Hindu shrine dedicated to Lord Shiva in Thap Sakae District, Prachuap Khiri Khan, Thailand. It sits near the coast, not far from Thap Sakae Beach, just off Highway 1029.
We weren’t planning to stop there at all. We simply came across the shrine while driving toward the beach and decided to pull over. The shrine is in the Ang Thong sub-district, an area known for its quiet beaches and laid-back local life.
With the sea nearby and hardly anyone around, the place felt calm and reflective, a peaceful pause in the middle of our road trip. Despite its small size, it left a strong impression and turned into one of those unexpected moments that stay with you.
