This is the largest concrete dam of its type in the world and is well worth a visit. There is also some impressive sculptures

This "park" is a fascinating place as it is a mix of both Hindu and Buddhist beliefs. There are 2 huge Ganesha idols, a multitude of mice sculptures (it is Ganesha's vehicle and believers here whisper their wishes in their ears --> like them do not forget to close the other ear when you speak so that nobody else can hear your wish!) and a lot of Buddha idols. I went there for Ganesha Chaturthi festival and there were a lot of activities, people Reading your palms etc and though it is supposed to be a Hindu festival, it is very different from Indian ways of celebrating it. Awesome if you know both India and Thailand.

Wang Takhrai, is a resort and a botanical garden belonging to the Chumphot - Phanthip Foundation. The park was decorated with countless species of flora and is a short distance from famed waterfall Namtok Sarika. Wang Takhrai encompasses a total area of approximately 1,500 rai (about 600 acres) and is renowned for its scenic landscapes, small rocky creek and wide variety of plants.

This is a very impressive modern Buddhist site a few Kilometres before Sarika Waterfall. It is a tribute to the revered Mukha Bucha event in the Buddhist Calendar, when 1,250 disciples came to see the Buddha without being summoned. This is spectacularly represented here by the large gold Buddha surrounded by the symmetrically placed smaller gold statues of the disciples.
There is also an interesting very large clay/adobe tableau in a nearby open sided pavilion.

i'm wary of visiting Waterfalls in Thailand because even 3-meter high falls are well advertised along the highway. In many instances my side trip to see the "namtok" ended in frustration because the waterfall was not even photo-worthy. Sarika is situated in a valley cul-de-sac. the entrance and parking is well maintained. the stream from the falls has many spots were you can wade or sit in the water to cool off or meditate. the forest canopy offers sufficient shade for picnicking. the terrain to the foot of the falls may be quite challenging to the handicapped and elderly, but getting there is well worth the effort.

stunning bamboo walkway leading to a temple at the rear. This trutly unique bamboo walkway shelters you from the sunlight allowing a small ray of light through the top of the bamboo my favourite place to visit in this area
8. Chulachomklao Royal Military Academy

Reviewed By Chattan_k - Bangkok
The CRMA is okay if you want to experience soft adventure activities that the academy provides like shooting and horse riding. This is a school any how, so there is not much to see except for buildings, parade grounds and basically just a large wooded area. It is not necessarily a stopover for everyone but ideal if you are into doing an action-oriented holiday.

Dicha cascada en pequeña pero para los lugareños es bastante apreciada ya que hay lugares para comprar comida en los alrededores , en estacion seca fluye poca agua , es conocida por dos nombres Namtok Lan Rak y Namtok Tat Hin Kong , dicho lugar las aguas fluyen de
Kho Yai Nacional Park , por lo cual todos los alrrededores de dicha zona son bonitos, merece asesorarse
para aprovechar en visitar lugares cercanos

เป็นครั้งแรกในการเดินทางสู่คลองมะเดื่อ ซึ่งระยะทางเข้าไปนั้น อาจลำบากนิดหน่อย แต่นั้นไม่เป็นอุปสรรค เราอาจไม่ได้ ขึ้นไปจุดสูงสุด อยู่แค่ชั้นล่าง สวนลุงชัยพร แต่นั้นก็ดีมากแล้วจริงๆๆ เมื่อเข้าไปที่สวน ไม่มีการเสียค่าเข้า แต่เสียค่าแคร่ไม้ไผ่ 100 บาท สนุกมากเมื่อได้ไป คนไม่เยอะมาก ทำให้เราสบายและสนุกมากๆๆ ติดใจจนอยากไปอีกครั้งจริงๆ ห้องน้ำสบาย บริการฟรี มีร้านอาหารเล็กๆๆ 1 ร้าน รสชาดปานกลาง ราคาอยู่ 50 ขึ้น สรุปโดยรวมคือดีน่าเที่ยว แต่เแนะนำ ทำอาหารไปกินได้ก็ดีนะ
