Thailand Family visit: Walk in Sam Roi Yot National Park Prachuap Khiri Khan, Central Provinces, Sam Roy Yot, Travel to Thailand 5 (1)After the visit of the cave at the royal pavilion, here is the continuation of this day in the superb (and I think quite unknown) Sam Roi Yot national park.Knowing that this area is part of the Prachuap Khiri Khan region, which is often overlooked by tourists, but worth a look for those looking an “authentic” Thailand.In addition to these rocky peaks, the park has a few temples, one of which is nestled at the foot of a cliff. Not far from there is a viewpoint (which I unfortunately found too late since it takes an hour to reach the summit) which is really worth a look. You will see all the surrounding mountains, the shrimp farms and the sea.Seeing in the background a temple lost in the middle of this semi-desert moor between the hills we decided to go and take a look. The statues here were frankly plastic.The temple is brand new. The main activity in the area is shrimp farming.One of the 300 peaks. In the dry season it really looks like a desert.A passage dug between 2 hills to access another fishing village, they have had a beautiful new road since my last visit. Here too there is a cave to visit, this day due to lack of time and motivation (because you have to climb too...) we will not visit this one which also requires a flashlight. As it is low tide the activity is minimal... Change of scenery, direction a nearby beach. The best season for bird watching is August/September. Here in April there were not so many, the last time we were there in October there were still relatively many.The sea retreats very far. Desert.Sam Phraya Beach, that's its name. Camping? In a shrimp farm. An overview. Ah, it's certain that here it's not invaded by tourists... It's break time.Dry.We originally set off to go to the Khao Dang viewpoint and came across this temple which is also worth a look. Thai countryside in all its glory. The canal is one of the possible visits to the surrounding area. On the hillside (with the monkeys) there was this magnificent temple, unfortunately under renovation at its base. I couldn't take a picture of it because they are more fearful but there is also a 2nd species of monkey here, a little bigger, with darker fur and white hairs around the eyes (dark langurs)Supposedly there was a path to access the viewpoint in the area... we found it later but on the right a little further back on the main road, not in this temple, in other words the guys I was asking must have misunderstood... Knowing that the temple is called Khao Dang, like the viewpoint, doesn't help...Just near the temple. Did you like the article? Vote on the article Note globale 5 / 5.
