About Amphawa

In the Ayutthaya Period, Amphawa was called Khwaeng Bang Chang, a small community that flourished in agriculture and trade. Sources have confirmed the existence of a market here since the reign of King Prasat Thong in the mid-17th century. In 1766, King Rama II was born in Amphawa, his mother's hometown, as his father was ruling the town ofRatchaburi. At his probable birthplace is now the King Rama II Memorial Park.
