| Twelve kilometers off the shore of Si Racha is the large island of Si Chang offering pleasant and quiet mountain and sea views. It is the site of a summer palace built during the reign of King Rama V. Named Phra Chuthathut Rachathan, the palace is made up of several buildings including halls, villas and a temple, all constructed in Thai-European architectural style. Although abandon for over a century, several section have been restored.
Another popular points for visitors is the Chao Pho Khao Yai Shrine which attracts devotees all year round. Uphill from the shrine is a Holy Footprint and a Chedi (pagoda) housing a Holy Relic. From the summit of the hill spreads a panoramic view of the Si Chang Community and a beautiful view of sunrise. Another viewing point is at Tham Chakkraphong where a large Buddha statue is enshrined. If you opt for a sunset view, go to Chong Khao Khat and Tham Khao Phang beach to west of the island. Tham Khao Phang Beach is suitable for swimming.
There are hotels and bungalows on the island. For local transport, motorised tricycles can be chartered to travel around the island. There are daily ferry services between Si Racha and Ko Si Chang.
