Found in the Phang Nga Province, the fishing village of Ko Panyi is one of the most notable places in Thailand because the entire village was built on stilts over the water by fisherman. The settlement was established in the late 18th century but didn't become a popular tourist destination until recently. Visitors can explore the village, visit one of the local homes, have a freshly prepared seafood meal, or buy one of the many interesting souvenirs sold at the marketplace stalls. Other aspects that shouldn't be missed are the school and mosque, which were the first structures built on the land adjacent to the village.
