The notorious prison Khuk Khi Kai, just before Laem Sing beach,
was built to hold Thais who were against the French occupation
of Chanthaburi in 1893. A 7-meter high, square-shaped prison, it
was built in bricks with each side measuring 4.40 meters. The
walls were holed for ventilation. The porous roof is said to
have been used as chicken coop through which the birds dropped
their excrements to prisoners as one of the torture method.
Opening hours: 9am-5pm Getting there: Located 30 kilometers
from the city center. Take Highway No.3 then take a left turn to
