Trang Old Town & Clock Tower
หอนาฬิกาตรัง
The Chinese-heritage old quarter in central Trang, with a clock tower, Sino-Portuguese arcade houses, frog-shaped tuk-tuks and Chinese clan associations.
Trang is a provincial capital with a large Chinese population. The old town centers on a blue-and-white clock tower, surrounded by Sino-Portuguese shophouses, old coffee shops and Chinese association halls, and frog-shaped tuk-tuks run through the streets. During the Nine Emperor Gods Festival (the vegetarian festival) in the ninth lunar month, there are processions. The city center has few attractions, so it's best to have an early morning dim sum breakfast and then walk for half an hour before heading out to the islands or caves. The train station and the clock tower are about 500 meters apart, and the night market is on the streets nearby.
