  • Not to far from Pattaya is a land known for waterfalls, bounties of fruit, lots of rain, and most of all Gem Stones. I travel from Pattaya to Chantaburi in search of all these things but today we enjoy a bit of the local area and learn what we can along the way before getting down to business.

    Note: I miss-spoke the name of the hotel, it is The Meen Boutique Hotel, map link here.

    Hi Loucas,
    Good to see you out and about again on the road. Shame about the rain.
    Did you see the gem trading on the streets? 20 years ago the buyers would come to Chantaburi and setup table on the streets. The sellers (miners and diggers) from around the area, and also Cambodia, would come to town with bags of gems and trade in Chantaburi. Fascinating.
    Take care and happy travels. Bye for now...

    Good to see you back in the saddle again, Lucas! I can imagine one might run into problems leaving the country or entering another with big bags of gemstones unless you're already a licensed dealer or importer/exporter. Probably best to do some due diligence before traveling internationally with bulk gemstones.

      @@grahamjohnson4702 ??? Neither Lucas or I are claiming to be experts. To what are you alluding to? All that I suggested is that if one plans to leave Thailand with bags of gemstones, whether personally mined or purchased wholesale, that they know and comply with the law to avoid problems. Not sure how that makes me an expert! Are you an expert on experts?
