Then, immerse yourself in Rayong’s history by exploring Yomjinda Road, the city’s historic old town. Wander through antique shops, explore old museums, and admire local artwork. Handmade crafts from the community are also available, and there are countless chic photo opportunities along the way.

Enjoy a leisurely lunch at Chey Yomjinda, They offer a variety of dishes, from single-plate meals to shared options. Don’t miss the desserts like Lod Chong Wat Jet and crispy Roti, perfect for cooling off before continuing your journey.
