Places to visit: Fort Phra Chulachomklao | Samut Prakan

During that event, King Rama V ordered the construction of fortifications surrounding the water to prevent invasion. One of these was Fort Laem Pha Pha, or Fort Phra Chula. Seven Tiger Crouching cannons were installed, used to attack a French pilot boat that had encroached on Thai waters, sinking one, ultimately leading to the settlement of the territorial dispute along the left bank of the Mekong River.
Pay your respects at the Royal Monument of King Chulalongkorn, dressed in the uniform of a naval commander. Those interested in the history of this important event can visit the museum to learn about Fort Phra Chulachomklao and the events of Rattanakosin Era 112.
There is also the HTMS Mae Klong Museum, showcasing the longest-serving decommissioned warship in the Royal Thai Navy for over 60 years. There is also an outdoor weaponry museum. There is also a nature trail for conservation.
