Si Racha ศรีราชา is a town and subdistrict in Chonburi Province, Thailand, on the eastern coast of the Gulf of Thailand. Also written as Sri Racha, it covers 4 sq km (1.6 sq mi) and has a population of around 19,500 people (2012 estimate). The town is famous as the site of the Sriracha Tiger Zoo and White Dragon King Temple. Other than that, it is just another nondescript Thai town.
The town of Si Racha dates to 1945, when it was formed as a subdistrict municipality. It was elevated to town status in 1995.

Visiting Si Racha
Si Racha is on the way from Bangkok to Pattaya. The most straightforward (but not necessarily the fastest) way is to head east on Sukhumvit Road (Highway 3) until you arrive in Si Racha. Alternatively, take the No. 7 motorway until the interchange with Sukhumvit Road. Then head north on Sukhumvit Road till you reach Si Racha.

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
