» The small province of Samut Sakhon is better known for its seafood market than as a weekend destination. Most of the time when we drive South, we just quickly try and pass it because Highway 35 is not an enjoyable driving experience, as it is always under construction.The coastal province along the Gulf of Thailand was in the spotlight recently when Aung San Suu Kyi, Myanmar's opposition leader, visited migrant workers there.
