You may wonder “what is this place?” when you see big brown building on the left after passing Klai Kangwon palace. It is always crowded with cars from BKK. We thought it was live house or trendy cafe but there are quite a large number of old ladies hanging around, so it was a mistery… We recently found out this place is called “Plearn Wan” is a sort of shopping and cinema mall.
It offers a unique concept brings back some of the most treasured memories of this resort to the modern day in a form of a lifestyle complex, where you will be transported back to the past through its stores, restaurants and cafes that offer retro favorites from food and ice creams to toys and vintage fashion. The highlight is the “nang klang plaeng” or an open-air cinema on its luscious green lawn where old movies are shown like in the old days. Hua Hin is known to be a retro-loving resort town but Plearn Wan has just taken the experience to a whole other level.
