What really floors you
in Thailand is the genuine warmth and welcoming nature of its
people. From Thai airhostesses welcoming you with folded hands,
bowed heads and bending over forward to salespersons profusely
thanking you with repeated bows, Thailand is a large and
enthusiastic host which genuinely loves its guests. And it tries
its best to make them feel welcome and at home as long as they
are around.

- "A
Peaceful And Relaxing Holiday In Hua Hin" (PR-Inside.com Published July 7, 2008)
Once a typical sleepy
fishing village, Hua Hin has now been evolved into an excellent
resort town of elites. However, Hua Hin is not a destination for
those looking for vibrant city life and intoxicating nightlife.
With its beautiful sandy beaches, sparkling clear water, and
serene atmosphere, Hua Hin is an excellent destination for those
travelers, who love walking along the quaint streets, enjoying
the picturesque views of the surroundings, and savoring
sumptuous sea food specialties.

Besides quiet beach resorts,
swathes of clean sand and welcoming residents, Hua Hin has
another magnet for visitors: the night market that lights up the
streets every evening. The seaside town's biggest night bazaar
has hundreds of vendors displaying a dazzling array of Thai
traditional food and desserts alongside a variety of other
merchandise.

A beach resort quiet enough for a king
(International
Herald Tribune Published May 4, 2007)
There are not many places
left in Thailand where travelers can sit in the surf
undisturbed. So I was surprised, on a trip in March, to find
that Hua Hin, the country's oldest beach resort, just a
three-hour train ride from Bangkok, had not yet fallen to the
wave of building and water sports.

king's presence turns village into tourism hub"
(Mail&Guardian Published 10
August 2006)
Once a simple fishing village, Hua Hin has evolved into one of
Thailand's bustling tourism gems thanks largely to the presence
of a revered resident: King Bhumibol Adulyadej. Just a few
hours drive from Bangkok, Hua Hin is an alternative to Pattaya,
a nearby beach resort best known for its thriving sex tourism,
as visitors, especially Thais, find the lack of the party vibe
in Hua Hin to be a selling point.
