And the first sunrise viewpoint of Siam It covers an area of approximately 340 square kilometers, covering the areas of Khong Chiam District, Si Mueang Mai District, and Pho Sai District, Ubon Ratchathani Province. It consists of a rich forest, various types of wildlife, and many beautiful natural landmarks, such as Pha Chan, Soi Sawan Waterfall, Sao Cheliang, Tham Patahan, Phu Na Tham, etc. In addition, ancient prehistoric paintings, approximately 3,000-4,000 years old, have been discovered at Pha Kham, Pha Taem, Pha Chek, and Pha Mei. It is considered the first national park in Thailand with the Mekong River, which is the longest border between Thailand and Laos, as the national park boundary, allowing a clear view of the forest and mountains on the Lao side. The word "Taem" is an original local language meaning a drawing, painting, imprinting, or any action using color to appear as an image, mark, or symbol. Pha Taem It is a site where prehistoric paintings, approximately 3,000-4,000 years old, are found, divided into 4 groups, with the longest group being 180 meters long and containing more than 300 paintings. In the past, local villagers who farmed near the Phu Pha forest area rarely traveled into the forest because they believed that “Pha Taem is a forbidden area. These mountains are sacred, and are mountains of death. Anyone who trespasses will likely meet with misfortune, possibly illness or even death.” The Phu Pha forest area around Pha Taem was revealed and known to the public when a group of lecturers and students from the Department of Anthropology, Silpakorn University, came to survey and discovered prehistoric paintings at Pha Taem, Ban Kum, Huai Phai Subdistrict, Khong Chiam District, Ubon Ratchathani Province. In addition, the forest in the surrounding area was still fertile. Therefore, a letter from the department dated May 26, 1981 was submitted to the National Park Division, Royal Forest Department, requesting that the Phu Pha forest in the area of Pha Taem be established as a national park.
