Ang Sila (Thai: อ่างศิลา, pronounced [ʔàːŋ sìʔ.lāː]) is a town (Thesaban Mueang) in the Mueang Chonburi District (amphoe) of Chonburi Province in the eastern region of Central Thailand.[2] Ang Sila is 60 km from Bangkok. Ang Sila is a fishing town.

Toponym

Ang Sila was previously known as Ang Hin from the place's large granite and sandstone basins.[3] The name Ang Sila means "Stone Basin". The stone is used to carve culinary mortars and pestles, rice grinders, and statuary.

History

Following the end of World War II, Ang Sila witnessed an influx of Teochew Chinese migrants. They then began turning the area's stone into several products which became popular in Thailand.[3]

Culture

Cuisine

As a fishing town, a majority of the town's seafood is sourced directly from the Bay of Bangkok. Seafood is then sold at the Old Market fresh, which includes crabs, shrimps and fishes. Established in 1876, the market was visited visited once by King Chulalongkorn.[4]
