The RG City Golf Club
The RG City Golf Club (formerly Royal Gems Golf City) offers one of the most unusual golf experiences in Thailand and the world. The 18-hole, par-71 Dream Arena course is a replica layout: the front nine recreates famous signature holes from courses around the globe — including the island 17th at TPC Sawgrass, the Road Hole at St Andrews, and the Postage Stamp at Royal Troon — while the back nine mirrors holes 10–18 of Augusta National. The full facility contains 63 holes, claimed to be the world's largest replica golf complex. For international visitors, it offers the novelty of playing iconic holes without the travel, membership requirements, or green fees those originals demand. It is a genuinely unique golfing experience with no direct equivalent elsewhere in Asia.

Siam Country Club Bangkok is the newest and most ambitious addition to the Siam Country Club portfolio, Thailand's most respected golf brand. Opened in 2022 on the Bangna-Trad Highway in Samut Prakan, it was designed by Toby Cobb — a close design associate of Bill Coore and Ben Crenshaw — bringing a decidedly American architectural philosophy to Bangkok's southern suburbs. The result is a hybrid layout that marries a sparsely treed parkland feel with genuine links characteristics: wide, flowing corridors, naturalistic bunkering, and a course that rewards strategic positioning over sheer power. At 7,250 yards from the tips with Zoysia fairways and ultra-dwarf Bermuda greens, it sets a high bar for conditioning. With only four water holes, it is unusually benign for a Bangkok area course and suits golfers who prefer to think their way around rather than manage constant water carries. The club's premium branding means fees sit at the top of the Bangkok market.
