My holy

Amphur Muang Chumporn is a small amphur and don't have many shopping mall so many people like to go with nature. The most nature you can meets at Chumporn. You can go to diving or go to the bird or go to the waterfall, you can rafting at Amphur PaTao (Some amphur of Chumporn).
In the first time that u come here, I hope you go to pay respect to Krom Luang Chumporn Khet Udom Sak at Hat Sai Ree (Tumpol Pak Num) and Luang Pu Song at Wat Chao Phar SaLa Loi (Amphur Muang Chumporn). There are the most important holy of Chumporn' heart.
I can see my city now have many people to come here but don't have anyone who interest about this city because many foriegner only want to go to Koh Tao or Koh Samui or Koh Nang Yuan.
I want to tell them, you can meet many place to more beautiful and peaceful and the pure nature. Because have a little people to stay at here and like this city same me. I want if have anyone who come here I hope them to meet the first impression.
Smile and sincerity.
Krom Luang Chumporn Khet Udom Sak, died in Chumporn and he's a sailor and doctor (thai traditional medicine), The local can called him "SaDet Taei" same he's father of all people in Chumporn and Every Sailor. You can meet San Sadet Taei in many place near the sea because Thai people believe he's can help us if we have to problem or diaster. So have many Thai people to go to respect and prayer him to help. Many people fulfill one's hope after their prayer from him.
**The venue is located by the foot of the hill in Hat Sai Ri area. Prince Chumphon was one of the King Rama Vs sons. Being the founder of the modern Navy of Thailand, the Prince was proclaimed as the Father of Thai Navy. He was respected by the navy, fishermen, and other people. His picture has been established in most of the houses in Chumphon.
The Monument consists of Prince Chumphon's Shrine for visitors to pay respect. Chumphon Warship is an old big torpedo warship, with the size of 68 x 6.55 metres. This warship was out of order in 1975 and was moved to Hat Sai Ri in 1979.
Herbal Garden is at the foot of the hill along the seacoast. This is the project of the Ministry of Public Health to conserve the valued herbs, in order to continue the concept of Prince Chumphon, who was also interested in using the traditional medicine to cure people.**

I like to go to prayer him too. I think I have a peace when I go to respect him and if I have problem that time I think I can win, As long As I respect him every problem don't important same he's mental restraint.
Luang Pu Song is the important monk have a verbal privilege when he alive. Now he died in about 20 years ago but his body not rot. Now his body stay in glass coffin at Wat Chao Pha SaLa Loi. If you go tho this temple, can meet many tortoise (believe turtle is his disciple because he help many turtle)
The Luang Pu Song Death's day have many turtle walk to this temple to respect his body and have tears from its eyes (my grand mother told me that time I'm so young)
