#WaterfallTour 🌿 Rom Klao - Phradon Waterfall, another beautiful waterfall in the middle of the forest of Phu Hin Rong Kla National Park, Phitsanulok Province 😍 🌿 Rom Klao - Phradon Waterfall is not very high and large, but the surrounding area is a beautiful pristine forest, covered with green moss. During the rainy season, this waterfall is even more beautiful. You can see the water flowing from the Rong Kla mountain range in full before flowing down through small and large rocks. In this area, there are also pink dragon's tongue flowers growing on the rocks. When the sunlight hits them, it creates a beautiful rainbow. It is a beautiful contrast of natural colors. 🌈 🌿 Rom Klao - Phradon Waterfall is about 5 kilometers from the national park office, about 1 kilometer before reaching the Political and Military School. From the main road, the path down to the waterfall is quite steep. Although it is only 400 meters, it is quite tiring. 😅 #DadMomTakeYouOnATravel #DadMomInviteYouOnATravel #LetsTravel #WaterfallTour #PhuHinRongKlaNationalPark #RomKlaoPhradonWaterfall #ParkTour #Phitsanulok #Natural attractions #100 ways to travel

Lan Hin Pum is another nature study trail that should not be missed when visiting Phu Hin Rong Kla.🪨🌱 Lan Hin Pum is located on the edge of a cliff, characterized by a field of stone knobs with diameters of about 30 centimeters and heights of 20-30 centimeters. In the past, this area was used as a recuperation spot for patients in the hospital of communist insurgents. Due to its cliffside location, it is breezy and cool, making it a perfect place to relax.

It is a twin waterfall, 2 waterfalls next to each other, about 5 kilometers from the Phu Hin Rong Kla National Park Office, about 1 kilometer before the Political and Military School. You have to walk for another 400 meters to find the waterfall that is not very high. But the surrounding environment is a very beautiful and dense forest. From Rom Klao Waterfall, walk another 200 meters to Phradon Waterfall, which is similar to Rom Klao Waterfall, which originates from the same stream, but is lower and has a stronger current. #Rom Klao Phradon Waterfall #Nakhon Thai #Phu Hin Rong Kla #Phu Hin Rong Kla in the rainy season #Visit Phitsanulok #People who like to travel #Fly and travel with Trip

#GetDiscountsWithoutLuck This is Ban Rong Kla, Nakhon Thai District, Phitsanulok Province, located in Phu Hin Rong Kla National Park. The weather here is cool all year round, but the busiest time is every January because the area here grows rows of tiger lilies, making it a beautiful pink village. In addition to admiring the beauty of the village, we can also go up the hill to see the view of the village from afar. Pinned to Wat Pa Phu Hin Rong Kla, parked the car at the temple, walked up the hill a bit, and then we found the viewpoint. It's so cute. #TravelThailand #TigerLily #TravelPhitsanulok

📍Paper Flower Field..🏵️🏵️ Phu Hin Rong Kla National Park This is the last curve of paper flowers and tiger lilies. Anyone who comes to Phu Lom Lo, I recommend stopping by first. Pay the park entrance fee once. Free admission to the paper flower field.. There are still a few tiger lilies for taking pictures.. 📸📸 📍Open for viewing every day: 6.00-17.00 hrs. Location: Phu Hin Rong Kla Royal Forest Development Project, Noen Phem Subdistrict, Nakhon Thai District, Phitsanulok Province 📍Photographed on 2/Feb/2568

Camping under the stars at Man Khao with beautiful views along the way. Man Daeng Waterfall, Phu Hin Rong Kla National Park, is located at the end of Man Khao village. It's not far, just a short walk with leeches and photo opportunities along the way. There are dragon tongue flowers here (many in the group might have been here and know about them). However, these flowers bloom around August to September. At the end of September, you might find 2-3 flowers in small patches, but they are not very beautiful as they are withering away. Man Daeng has 32 levels, but only 8 levels are open for walking. Don't be greedy and walk too much; let nature be. The remaining forest is a closed, fertile forest preserved as a watershed. Don't worry about not encountering leeches here because there are plenty. They appear as soon as you stop, and they are quite large. The green leeches are beautiful. Personally, I find them cute when they stretch. I call them 'Taki'. After the waterfall walk, you can change clothes at the Border Patrol Police School in Man Khao, set up a tent, and stargaze. It's very enjoyable. Popping popcorn adds to the fun. The weather there is mountainous. It's hot and windy during the day and very cold at night, even if it's not winter. If you go during this time, you'll enjoy it. There is also a sea of mist, beautiful green mountains, and the waterfall is as misty as in the pictures. Oh, I wanted to see the dragon tongue flowers too, but I had to participate in volunteer activities during this time. We had to build a playground, paint classrooms, provide food, and donate items, so I missed the chance to see the flowers. I was disappointed because when I went to survey in July, the flowers hadn't bloomed yet. Maybe next year. Lastly, if you go via Thap Boek, the road is under construction where it has subsided. Only one lane is usable. Low cars and sedans should avoid it to prevent damage. Other vehicles can go, but be careful. The fog is very thick at night and in the morning. It's hot at noon, but the wind is cool. P.S. Don't comment on my hiking outfit. I forgot to bring pants, so it was more colorful than I could describe. 5555

I've unearthed another treasure! This time in Thailand, I've discovered an incredibly niche gem—Khlong Lan District. It's so breathtakingly beautiful, I can't let anyone miss out! 🗺️Itinerary Day 1: Arrive in Khlong Lan District in the morning and take a songthaew to your pre-booked hotel to check in. The hotel is situated right by the river, offering stunning views. After a short rest, take a 10-minute walk to the Khlong Lan Floating Market. This vibrant market is filled with colorful boats loaded with various local snacks and handicrafts. It's a fantastic place to explore, and I recommend spending 2–3 hours there. Day 2: Rent a motorbike and head to Phu Hin Rong Kla National Park. Spend the morning hiking through the park's pristine forests, immersing yourself in the beauty of nature (3–4 hours). In the afternoon, visit the park's viewing platform for panoramic views of the rolling mountains—another 2 hours of pure bliss. Day 3: Enjoy a leisurely morning before taking a taxi to the local elephant sanctuary. Get up close and personal with the elephants, bathing and feeding them. This unforgettable experience will likely take up most of the day. 🌟Highlights Phu Hin Rong Kla National Park's primeval forest is a real-life enchanted wonderland, teeming with rare flora and fauna. Walking along the trails feels like stepping into a fairytale. The bustling Khlong Lan Floating Market offers a unique glimpse into local life as you cruise through the canals. Every corner is a photo opportunity. The elephants at the sanctuary are incredibly gentle and adorable. Watching them amble along is truly heartwarming. 🍱Food Recommendations I highly recommend Som Tam Nua restaurant, located in the heart of Khlong Lan District. Their signature green papaya salad is a must-try—tangy, spicy, and bursting with Thai flavors. The Tom Yum soup is also excellent, with a rich broth and large, fresh prawns. A bowl of this will warm you right up! 🏨Accommodation Experience I stayed at the Riverfront Resort, which boasts an excellent location right by the river. The rooms are cozy, clean, and comfortable, with beautiful river views from the window. The hotel staff are incredibly welcoming and helpful with arranging various activities. It offers excellent value for money. ⚠️Important Notes Remember to check the official website for Phu Hin Rong Kla National Park's opening hours and ticket information in advance. Thailand can get very hot, so be sure to take sun protection measures, including sunscreen, sunglasses, and a hat. At the elephant sanctuary, follow the instructions of the staff and do not feed the elephants without permission. Khlong Lan District is truly a place full of surprises, with stunning scenery, delicious food, and adorable animals. I'm sure you'll fall in love with it too. Start planning your trip now!
