Rayong
ระยอง
Rayong is a province of contrasts, with one of Thailand's highest industrial outputs from the Map Ta Phut petrochemical complex alongside pristine beach islands like Koh Samet, a popular weekend escape for Bangkok residents. The coastal town is famous for its nam pla (fish sauce) and shrimp paste production, essential ingredients in Thai cuisine. As a key node in the Eastern Economic Corridor, Rayong is experiencing rapid economic growth while its fruit orchards continue to produce premium durian, rambutan, and mangosteen.
