The city of Ranong, especially on Rueang Rat and nearby roads, is blessed with old architecture, some of which still houses family businesses that have been passed down through generations. The old town area is not too large to explore on foot. Doing so, you have the freedom to check out any place that interests you, from shops and markets on the main streets to hidden gems in alleyways. From Rueang Rat road, if you walk eastwards along the road that goes up the hill called Khao Niwet, you’ll find the elegantly reconstructed Rattana Rangsan Palace which serves as a public park and a museum where you can learn about the city’s history and the royal visit of King Rama V to Ranong in 1890. The original structures were built by the Ranong governor to accommodate the beloved monarch during his three-night stay in the southern town. However, due to its immense size, the king said it should be called a palace rather than a pavilion........
