Chulachomklao Fort, Military fort in Laem Fa Pha, Thailand

The coastal fortification contains artillery structures, defense walls, barracks, and military exhibits along the Gulf of Thailand coastline.

King Chulalongkorn ordered the construction of this defensive fort in 1893 to protect Thailand from potential naval attacks during colonial times.

The architectural design merges Thai military traditions with European defense systems, displaying the technological exchanges between Thailand and Western nations.

Visitors can reach the fort by taking a taxi or private vehicle from Bangkok, with guided tours available daily between 8:00 AM and 5:00 PM.

The fort maintains its original Armstrong guns from the 19th century, positioned strategically to guard the entrance of the Chao Phraya River.
