Palais historiques et temples antiques de Petchaburi - Visite privée de Hua Hin
Description
Phetchaburi est l'une des plus anciennes villes de Thaïlande et est connue pour le palais le plus célèbre, le palais d'été du roi Rama 5 sur la colline de Khao Wang, dont l'ensemble du terrain se compose de salles royales, de palais, de temples et d'autres bâtiments élégamment construits dans un style occidental néoclassique thaïlandais équilibré. et le style architectural chinois. Les anciens palais ont été convertis en musées qui présentaient les équipements royaux utilisés par le roi Rama IV et le roi Rama V. Le temple Wat Mahat est un mélange des styles tardif d'Ayutthaya et du début de Rattanakosin avec une adaptation de l'ancien monastère khmer. Le temple de la grotte de Khao Luang a été construit sous le règne du roi Chulalongkorn et possède un trou à travers lequel la lumière du soleil vient et scintille sur les pierres, rendant la grotte colorée et permettant aux visiteurs de voir toute la beauté de l'intérieur de la grotte.
Options de l'excursion
Itinéraire
Le parc historique de Khao Wang ou Phra Nakhon Khiri est un site touristique remarquable dans la province de Petchaburi; c'est le symbole de la province. Khao Wang est très remarquable et est évidemment visible de loin, y compris le chedi blanc et les bâtiments. Khao Wang est l'ancien vestige de la province de Petchaburi qui est situé sur la montagne de 92 mètres de haut. Nous prendrons le téléphérique pour aller au sommet de la montagne.
Situé au centre, le Wat Mahathat blanc brillant est un temple impressionnant. La pièce maîtresse est un prang de style Ayuthaya à cinq niveaux de 42 m de haut (stupa en forme d'épi de maïs) décoré en relief de stuc, une spécialité des artisans locaux de Phetchaburi que vous verrez partout dans la ville. À l'intérieur du wí · hăhn (sanctuaire) qui fait face, il y a des peintures murales importantes, bien que très endommagées, du début du XXe siècle.
À environ 4 km au nord de la ville se trouve la grotte de Khao Luang, une caverne spectaculaire remplie de stalactites qui est l'un des sanctuaires troglodytes les plus impressionnants de Thaïlande et l'un des préférés du roi Rama IV lorsqu'il était moine. Accessible par des escaliers raides, il est éclairé par une lueur paradisiaque tous les matins (si les nuages le permettent) lorsque les rayons du soleil filtrent à travers la lucarne naturelle.

Very comfortable and enjoyable trip. The guide was very knowledgeable and helpful.
B was super friendly and knowledgeable about Thailands history. We really enjoy the whole time we were with him. We learned so much about the Royal Family. We learned a lot about Buddisim here in Thailand, it was amazing the depth of knowledge and the teaching and structure of how Buddism fits into the everyday lives of Thai people.
Great excursion! We viewed temples, caves and had a wonderful lunch at an authentic Thai restaurant. Lou, our guide was very pleasant and informative about the areas we visited and Thailand in general.
The itinerary is good, the palace in particular is spectacular! There are many steps, some narrow and steep but as an unfit 60 something I made it! Have given 3 stars as we weren’t given much information during the day on where we were going and when. Prompt and early pick up by a friendly driver who did not speak English so we had to guess (rightly) we were on the right trip and we’d see our guide at some point. Our guide was pleasant and took us to the ‘sights’ but did not have much to say en route other than chatting to the driver. We would have appreciated a nod to what the story was. Very accommodating about when we wanted to lunch, but the restaurant suggested by the guide was no longer there so a bit of a lottery to find a substitute. I’d hoped he’d have checked that out! We did have a nice lunch in a small side/street but struggled with the menu as it was in Thai and our guide could have been a little more helpful about that, but I guess he was also a bit on the back foot! All in all I think it seemed less than expected as on an earlier tour to Maeklong our Ken Diamond driver:guide was exceptional and pointed out so much about the countryside, Thai life and the sights ( so big shout out to him and ask for him if you can - his name was ‘B’!) The sights on this 6 hour day (about an hour’s drive from Hua Hin) are great so don't let this put you off unduly! Driver very skilled moving the car in and out of some tight places, so thanks to him - and the guide - but if we had been new to ‘trips’ and the Thai genuine attitude might have been a bit disconcerting! Also make sure you take water as we were not offered any - but plenty of options to buy at various points, so that’s a small niggle.
We were just my wife and I on this trip. Unfortunately, my wife got bad from the heat when we arrived, so we asked to be driven back to the hotel. Our guide was some of the sweetest and helpful one can imagine, so even though we did not get so much out of the trip itself, we will still give our best recommendations.
The trip with Num, our fantastic and friendly guide, was filled with great information and spots to visit. The lunch was great and we recommend this trip to all culturally enthusiastic people :-)
We visited Petchaburi's Historic Palaces and Ancient Temples. This was an amazing tour and we had the good fortune to have Bobby “B” as our tour guide. This was our second time having B as our tour guide. He was again friendly and accommodating imparting great knowledge and taking many photos. The SUMMER PALACE and KHAO LUANG CAVE are can’t miss. We highly recommend this tour.
A great value , and an amazing tour , our guide was super friendly and very helpful, would highly recommend this tour
A wonderfully fascinating tour, with an informative and friendly guide and a polite and safe driver. We particularly liked the fact it was a private tour so we were able to go at our own pace and had plenty of time to ask our guide, Naree, lots of questions about the particular areas of interest to us. Highly recommended! 😊
Very good time alternating visit to temples, visit to a school and excellent typical restaurant The guide was careful and drove a comfortable car
