Trat A small province at the eastern-most frontier bordering on Cambodia with the Khao Banthat mountain range forming a natural demarcation, Trat is a resort town with over fi fty large and small off -shore islands, long white sandy beaches and unspoiled coral ranges. It is also a major fruit-growing and fi shing area. About 315 kilometres from Bangkok and covering an area of 2,819 square kilometres, the province is administratively divided into the districts of Mueang Trat, Khao Saming, Laem Ngop, Khlong Yai and Bo Rai, and the sub-districts of Ko Chang and Ko Kut.

History Trat is a seaport mostly suitable for mooring ships, loading goods, trade exchange, refi lling food and freshwater for ships. It is therefore a community site of Chinese merchants who travelled to trade.

03-90 im3.indd 5 11/16/12 7:55 PM 6

Trat was considered among the trade centre cities of Southeast Asia in the late Ayutthaya period. A lot of goods that were sent to sell overseas, especially forest things; such as, deer’s horns, animal hides, scented wood, and spices, were brought from the forest and mountainous zone of the eastern coast including Rayong, Chanthaburi, and Trat. Such goods were carried by river and along the Khao Saming Mountain to reach the mouth of the Gulf of Trat.

In the independence war, King Taksin the Great chose Trat as a bumper outpost to provide food for the troops before he moved the naval army from Chanthaburi.

In the reign of King Rama I the Great, Trat was still an important seaport, as it used to be in the Ayutthaya period. During the reign of King Rama III, Thailand fought in a war with Chao Anuwong, the ruler of Vientiane, who later took sides with Vietnam. Thailand and Vietnam were in confl ict and a war broke out in 1828. Trat was a site of gathering soldiers and food, and a military fortress and camp was established at Ban Laem Hin in the Gulf of Trat.

In the reign of King Rama V the Great, France sent its naval troops to seize Chanthaburi in 1893 (Ro So 112), and returned it to Thailand in 1904 in exchange for Trat, covering from Laem Sing to Ko Kut, and Patchantakhirikhet (Ko Kong). Later, the Thai government came to realise that Trat was of strategic importance, and that most of the people there were Thai. However, with the intelligence of King Rama V the Great, France agreed to make a contract to return Trat and Dan Sai on the right bank of the Mekong River (when facing the mouth of the river) to Thailand in exchange for Battambong, Siem Reap, and Sri Sophon, on 23 March, 1906. The handover ceremony was performed by Phraya Maha Ammattayathipbodi, then Phraya Si Thep who held the position of Palat Thunchalong or Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Interior, as the head of the delegation of the Thai government, and Monsieur Rousseau Residant as the head of the delegation of the French government at the Trat Provincial Hall, and the French troops were withdrawn on 6 July, 1907.

During the Indochina War (1940-1941), France attempted to seize Trat again on 17 January, 1941, but the Thai navy fought

03-90 im3.indd 6 11/16/12 7:55 PM 7

back courageously to successfully save this strategic city of abundance.

In 1978, there was a war in Cambodia, and a hundred thousand Khmers fl ed for their lives into Thailand through the Banthat Mountain Range, an eastern border. Highway 318 running parallel with the Banthat Mountain Range and the coastal line towards Amphoe Khlong Yai became a main strategic route. The war continued until 1986. After that, the path was transformed into a border trade route between Cambodia and Thailand, with the Hat Lek Border Market ending the boundary of Thailand and marking the starting point of travel to Ko Kong.

The discovery of “red gems” or “Siamese rubies” in the area of Amphoe Bo Rai in 1971 caused a gems fever and people from all walks of life fl ocked here to try their luck. Prosperity in all aspects happened in Bo Rai and made it a big city being developed alongside with the town of Trat. Its former dense forest area became pitted, and when all precious stones were gone in 1991, Bo Rai was left a deserted city with only shops and buildings as a reminder of its fl ourishing economy in the past.

ATTRACTIONS Amphoe Mueang Trat Wat Buppharam (ÇÑ´ºØ»¼ÒÃÒÁ) or Wat Plai Khlong (Ç´»ÅÒÂ¤ÅÍ§)Ñ located on Phatthanakan Plai Khlong Road, Mu 3 Ban Plai Khlong, Tambon Wang Krachae. is the most ancient temple in Trat. It won the award for conservation of Thai architecture in 2001 from the Association of Siamese Architects. It is the province’s oldest temple built around the reign of King Prasat Thong (1648 A.D.) in the Ayutthaya Period. Than Phrakhru Khunnasanphisut (Luangpho Ho), an abbot during the reign of King Rama V the Great, restored the monk’s dwelling and permanent objects in the temple. Presently, Than Phrakhru Suwannasanwibun has established a museum, with full cooperation and support from the villagers, and kept the temple compound clean and tidy. Thus, the temple has become the centre for religious aff airs. Places of interest within the temple include :

03-90 im3.indd 10 11/16/12 7:55 PM 11

Museum of priceless ancient objects : HRH Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn graciously presided over the opening ceremony on 29 April, 1992. Many ancient objects have been collected here; such as, Lord Buddha’s relics which are the country’s most auspicious item of respect, a golden Buddha image lined with silver, Buddha images in diff erent postures, Chinese ceramics, European crockery, a kettledrum, etc. This is evidence of an exchange of culture between this seaport on this eastern coast and those in Southeast Asia and the Western sphere. The Museum is open daily from 08.00 a.m. - 05.00 p.m. Mural Paintings in the Ubosot (ordination hall) and the reclining Buddha image hall were drawn by local artists in the Rattanakosin era. They are a combination of Chinese arts and literature, which shows that this temple might have been favoured by Chinese merchants on their trips to the eastern coast. There were Chinese traders having migrated by boat to Trat since the Ayutthaya period. Some came from Ayutthaya and Bangkok, and the others from Vietnam, Malaysia, and Singapore. Group of Thai-style Monk’s Cells were correctly constructed according to the code of monastic discipline that restricts its size for only one monk. The locals would help build a monk’s cell for the boy to be ordained and carry it to the temple on the ordination day. Chanting Hall is a wooden pavilion on stilts, having a one-tiered enameled brick roof, extended “Pik Nok” eaves, a gable of gilded carved-wood in the Thep Phanom (angel in adoration) pattern, “Pakon” paneled walls, and octagonal wooden poles. Chedi is a square pagoda with 12 indented corners made of cement-coated laterite. Wihan Fa Kradan is an image hall on a junk-shaped brick base, the same as that of the Ubosot, built in the late Ayutthaya period. It has a one-tiered roof and wooden walls.

It is diff erent from other city pillar shrines because of its form as a Chinese pavilion. When King Taksin came to gather troops here, he ordered to build this city pillar which was believed by the Chinese to protect the city from enemies and to bring peace to the people. Therefore, the city pillar was a symbol to maintain a good relationship between the Thais and Chinese. Every year on the sixth night of the waxing moon period of the sixth lunar month, there is a celebration called, Phli Mueang Day (ÇÑ¹§Ò¹¾ÅÕàÁ×Í§) or known among the Chinese as Xia Gong Sae Yit (ÇÑ¹à«ÕèÂ¡§á«ÂÔ´) which means the birthday of the City Pillar God. There are many activities such as Thai alms-giving and Chinese Pung Tao Ma annual fair during a month before and after Chinese New Year. It is said when France colonized Trat, French soldiers saw people in Trat going to pay homage to the city pillar everyday, so they wanted to pull the pillar down but could not. Although they used an elephant to pull it, it moved just a little. Then the Trat people helped together to renovate and maintain the pillar.

There is no report of their weight. They live in the Pacifi c Ocean, Indian Ocean, and the Gulf of Thailand, and are often found in brackish water sources and lakes like in the river mouth. Some schools of them may live in mighty rivers; such as, the Mekong River and Tonle Sap Lake. In 1916, they were also found in the Chao Phraya River. In Southeast Asia, Irrawaddy dolphins were fi rst found in the Irrawaddy River in Myanmar and they were named after the river. The dolphins can also be found in other sites; such as, Chilka Lake in India, the Mekong River, Songkhla Lake, and in the estuary of the Bang Pakong River, etc. Other names of the dolphins include “Loma Hua Bat Mi Khrip Lang,” “Loma Nam Chuet,” “Loma Hua Mon” in southern dialect, “Pla Kha” in Lao, etc. The dolphins in Tambon Laem Klat can be seen during November and the beginning of March.

The Centre is responsible for the promotion of public learning, transfer of technology to the public, communities, and schools; cooperation with other government agencies, relevant bodies in the local and private sectors, and private organisations; preparation of learning courses on mangrove forest resources, diversity, and ways of living of plants and animals at diff erent levels in the mangrove forest; and creation of mangrove forest demonstrative plots for a nature study. The Centre has a nature study trail along a narrow cement bridge under the canopy of the mangrove forest for a distance of 860 metres. There are more than 40 species of plants for a study. The thickly growing plants found include Kong Kang Bai Yai (Rhizophora mucronata Poir) or red mangrove, Kong Kang Bai Lek (Rhizophora apiculata Blume), Phangka Hua Sum Dok Daeng (Bruguiera gymnorrhiza), Khlu (Pluchea indica) or Indian marsh fleabane, Pho Thale (Thespesia populnea) or Portia tree, Rang Kathae (Kandelia candel), Tabun Dam (Xylocarpus moluccensis), and Tabun Khao (Xylocarpus granatum). Furthermore, lower plants and annuals are also found on tree crotches, like those in the rain forest; such as, Klet Nakkharat (Lycopodium phlegmaria) or tassel fern, Kratae Tai Mai (Drynaria quercifolia) or oak-leaf fern, Nom Tamlia (Hoya ovalifolia) or wax plant, Wai Tamoi (Dendrobium crumenatum) or pigeon orchid, and orchids. They will blossom in the rainy season, during October and February, when the sea is at high tide, especially during the 12th waning moon day and the 5th waxing moon day, when the tide is in at daytime. For a visit at this time, the forest can be seen fl ooded with changes in its natural conditions. For instance, schools of fi sh come to feed themselves with food in the mangrove forest, and birds, like collared kingfi sher, egret, etc, hover to catch fi sh. Sometimes fruits of the plants in the mangrove forest are carried away

03-90 im3.indd 17 11/16/12 7:55 PM 18

by water, which shows the propagation of the plants in the forest. One part of the trail goes along Khlong Bang Phra, the canal of brackish water where there is an abundance of river shrimp, which is witnessed by a number of giant nets set by the villagers as a trap to catch giant freshwater shrimp swimming to lay eggs at the mouth of the gulf and return to their habitat in the inner part of the river. If going by Noen Ta Maeo Road in front of the Centre at nighttime, visitors will see a number of glittering fireflies amidst darkness, an impressive and beautiful scene.
