Phetchaburi 'Kaeng Krachan National Park'



              Kaeng Krachan National Park, Thailand

         Thailand has many green oases, but the 2,915 sq.km. Kaeng Krachan National Park in Petchaburi Province spanning the border with Burma/Myanmar, .is the largest. A three hour drive from Bangkok on the way South towards Cha’am, Hua Hin and Phuket, this wilderness is unparalleled for its rich diversity.



        Flora, Fauna and Accommodation in Kaeng Krachan National Park.There are over 250 species of insects and moths, over 450 species of birds including hornbills and the black drongo, plus spectacled langurs, Fea’s barking deer, tapir, elephant, wild dog, monkeys and gibbons. Rumours surface periodically of other wildlife including tigers and the Asiatic leopard. The rumours usually start after someone has gone into the park, disregarded the rules, and got lost. In recent years, two campers disappeared completely, never to be found.




        There are no luxurious hotels anywhere near the park, but the park provides 18 guesthouses and a camping facility around its headquarters, Ban Krang Camp, for 100 tents and Phanern Thung Camp with 60 tents. To reach the latter, a 4WD and experienced driver is required. During the cool months of December-March a dense fog blankets the deep valleys during the mornings.







       In a mountainous landscape with incredible views of sunrise and sunset and the lower valley at dawn covered in mist, with hills surging upward out of the mist like fingers piercing filmy gauze, the camping site is a tranquil spot in which to spend a week-end.

Ancient city of Thailand in Samut Prakan.



 
       Ancient City is a park spreading over 200 acres in the elephant-head shape of Thailand. In their correct geographic position, replicas of all the country's most historically significant structures have been erected, some full-size but most scaled down. All have been accurately and meticulously recreated. Some buildings are even genuine, moved here for preservation.





      
      Other genuine buildings have been transported to recreate traditional scenes of Thai life, such as The market of Yesteryear, the Floating Market and the Northern Thai Hamlet.







       Another facet of Ancient City is the beautiful gardens, some of them portraying Thai legends with bronze horses flying over waterfalls and suchlike.
