You don't have to travel far from Bangkok to find world-class golf courses. Just a 30-minute drive from the city center takes you to Flora Ville Golf and Country Club in Pathum Thani Province.

Opened in 1998 and designed by the legendary Nick Faldo, this course was formerly known as Chuan Cheun before being renamed. The 18-hole course spans 6,747 yards from the back tees, with four tee locations on each hole, offering a variety of challenges.

Flora Ville features eleven par-4s, three par-3s, and four par-5s. Notably, it ends with a par-3 on the 17th hole and a par-5 on the 18th, providing a unique finish. The par-72 course is defined by lakes, bunkers, and mounding, creating a strategic layout. The opening par-4 hole is straightforward, while the second hole presents a narrower fairway with bunkers on the left and water on the right, adding complexity.

The third hole is the first par-5, followed by the first par-3 on the fourth. The greens are the toughest challenge at Flora Ville, not due to undulation but because of their size and speed. Precision and pace are crucial for success on the greens.

The clubhouse and facilities were completely rebuilt in 2018, featuring luxurious locker rooms, a pro shop, a restaurant, a meeting room, and a sports club with fitness programs and personal trainers. The modernized clubhouse enhances the overall experience at Flora Ville Golf and Country Club, making it a premier golfing destination near Bangkok.
