Exploring Sichon, Thailand: Hidden Coastal Gem Off the Beaten Path

[@vs123]

I like street market

[@olderbackpacker]

Very busy!!! Good food!!

[@iantravels2406]

Sichon is like one of those local towns that does have some nice background to it. You will stumble across these places a lot in Southeast Asia, especially since not many or almost none will make the effort to go such distances due to the inaccessibility of some (usually those by bus or car only)

Hope you're enjoying the cheap beers there :)

[@olderbackpacker]

What makes it a ‘gem’?

[@olderbackpacker]

After the being in the islands where so many tourist were. I found the town to be an amazing relaxing place. Plus walking along the street and being given a random free lift by Thai was something I’d not experienced in a ‘tourist’ place. So it’s a friendly authentic Thai town! I loved it :)

I’d describe it as ‘nice’ lol
