Singburi Travel Guide
Situated in the Chaopraya River valley in central Thailand, the little town of Singburi doesn't receive much attention from tourists. On first glance this dusty town has little to offer, and perhaps on second glance too.

- What to Do
- temple hopping, eating the local fish.
- Best Time to Go
- during the Fish Eating Festival in December.
- How Long?
- A day or less is enough to see Singburi.
- Trivia
- the provincial seal shows a picture of the historical monument fort of Khai Bangrachan.
Singburi means 'city of lion' in Sanskrit, which is curious as there is no record of lions having lived in this area. Singburi's attractions are mostly low key. There are dozens of temples to explore and a couple of museums in the area, but nothing to really write home about.
The town comes to life during the many annual festivals, and this is a good time to visit. All festivals are accompanied by a lot of singing, dancing and drinking and can be a lot of fun. The Kam Fa Festival is particularly vibrant, while the Fish Eating Festival and Sing Buri Red Cross Fair are good times to try local cuisine.
