Information
Chumphon
is a sea coast city parallel to the Gulf of Thailand. It is the
gateway to other southern provinces. Along more than 200 kilometres
of Chumphon’s seashore, there are many beautiful and picturesque
beaches. Still maintaining the natural beauty, the province is best
for those who seek relaxation in the natural and uniquely quiet
atmosphere.
From the documents, Chumphon was continuously the locations of
many communities since the pre-historic period, especially in the
area near Tha Taphao River banks. Chumphon was also one of the leading
trading centers of Siam (former name of Thailand).
Due to being the frontier city, the name “Chumphon”
is believed to derive from “Chumnumphon”, which means
the accumulation of forces. Whenever there was any movements of
the army, the soldiers would gather their forces here at this province.
The other source believed that it should be derived from a local
plant named “Maduea Chumphon” due to its richness in
this area. Therefore, naturally, this plant has become a symbol
of the logo of Chumphon Province.
