Surprising Things You’d Only See in Thailand

Thailand’s tuk-tuks already stand out in traffic, but Trang has a version that looks even stranger. Its distinctive rounded front has earned it the nickname “frog-headed tuk-tuk,” turning an everyday local taxi into something that seems to be staring back at passengers.

These vehicles remain part of Trang’s local identity and are promoted as a characteristic way to explore the province. Their bulbous shape gives them a look quite different from Bangkok’s better-known three-wheelers. In Trang, even catching a taxi can come with an amphibian theme.
