Pran Buri, Administrative district in Prachuap Khiri Khan, Thailand
Pran Buri extends over 765 square kilometers of varied terrain, from coastal areas along the Gulf of Thailand to elevated regions reaching 117 meters.
The district emerged from the merger of three ancient cities - Mueang Pran, Mueang Kamnoed Nopphakhun, and Mueang Prachuap - by King Chulalongkorn in 1906.
Local fishing traditions shape daily life in Pak Nam Pran, where residents maintain centuries-old methods of seafood harvesting in the Gulf of Thailand.
The district divides into six sub-districts with 44 villages, offering visitors access to markets, beaches, and natural areas through local transportation networks.
The Pran Buri River mouth contains a protected mangrove forest, designated as Pran Buri Forest Park, supporting diverse marine and terrestrial ecosystems.
