Tourist Attraction in Asean
Khao Kho There is a road leading to the summit where there is a memorial erected to commemorate the victims of the battles between the Royal Thai Armed Forces and insurgents of the Communist Party of Thailand. Between 1968 and 1981 there was unrest around the mountain where the provinces of Phetchabun and Phitsanulok meet. Khao Kho is a 1143 m high mountain in Phetchabun Province, Thailand. It is in Khao Kho District. This mountain is part of the western range of the Phetchabun Mountains. Khao Kho was named either after the Ceylon oak or after Livistona speciosa, a kind of palm tree. Both species are known as kho in Thai and are abundant in the area.
Kuang Si Falls The Kuang Si Falls sometimes spelled Kuang Xi or known as Tat Kuang Si Waterfalls, is a three levelled waterfall about 29 kilometres (18 mi) south of Luang Prabang. These waterfalls are a favourite side trip for tourists in Luang Prabang. The falls begin in shallow pools atop a steep hillside. These lead to the main fall with a 60 metres (200 ft) drop. They are accessed via a trail to a left of the falls. The water flows in to a turquoise blue pool before continuing downstream. The many cascades that result are typical of waterfalls. The locals charge a nominal admission fee of 20,000 kip to visit the site, but it is well maintained with walkways and bridges to guide the visitor. Most of the pools are open to swimming (although at least one is closed as being a sacred site).
