2025 Thong Pha Phum Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in March)

#เที่ยวกาญจนบุรี Location: Mountain view, San Nok Wua, Kanchanaburi Atmosphere: The peak of San Nok Wua consists of small ridges and large ridges. There are two camping areas: the point before reaching small ridges, which is connected to the entrance and exit of the forest, and the point called Ang Kratha, which is located exactly between large ridges and small ridges. Both points offer different views. However, if you want to hike up both small ridges and large ridges without spending a lot of time, we recommend staying at Ang Kratha. The bathroom is a zinc bathroom that requires a plastic bag to collect excrement and then throw it away at the garbage pit. To climb San Nok Wua, you must make a reservation. The rules for booking and the time period for hiking vary each year. You can follow the Khao Laem National Park Facebook page.

#Rainy season attractions 📌 Pin a rainy season tourist destination 🌧️ with Vajiralongkorn Dam, located in Tha Khanun Subdistrict, Thong Pha Phum District, Kanchanaburi Province. It was originally called Khao Laem Dam and was completed in 1984. It is the first rockfill dam with a concrete deck in Thailand. Its main purpose is to generate electricity. It has 3 generators with a production capacity of 100,000 kilowatts each, which can produce an average of 460 million kilowatt hours of electricity per year. In addition, Vajiralongkorn Dam helps reduce the amount of water in the rainy season a lot. In the dry season, it can also release water to help push out saltwater and wastewater from industrial factories on both sides of the Mae Klong River, improving the quality of the water in the Mae Klong River for more people. Vajiralongkorn Dam is therefore considered another multi-purpose dam in Thailand 💯 🚗 Tourists often like to go up to the dam crest to capture the beautiful view of the lake, especially during the rainy season when there is a thin layer of fog covering it, making it a very beautiful picture. And if you come in the evening It is also a very beautiful sunset viewing point. ⛅ 🌿 In addition, within the area of ​​Vajiralongkorn Dam, there are other interesting tourist attractions such as Khao Laem Skywalk, which is decorated with beautiful gardens all around. There are also accommodation services such as houses and floating rafts in the middle of the water. Anyone who is interested can contact the dam at 034-599-077 ‼️ #DadMomTakesYouOnATravel #DadMomInvitesYouOnATravel #LetsTravel #VajiralongkornDam #KhaoLaemDam #NaturalAttractions #DamTravel #KanchanaburiAttractions #ThongPhaPhumAttractions #RainySeasonAttractions #TheValueOfTravelIsNotMeasuredByDistanceButByHappiness

Krua Jay Nee has brought its kitchen to E-Tong, Pilok. Thai cuisine and seafood menu. Everyone might wonder how a mountain village like E-Tong can have seafood. From our research, we found out that Krua Jay Nee brings seafood from Myanmar. Since E-Tong Village is near the Myanmar border, and Myanmar itself is by the sea, the seafood is fresh and, importantly, not expensive. We ordered four dishes: prawns with tamarind sauce (this one is great, big prawns), seafood salad, clear soup with egg, and seafood tom yum. We went with four people, and it cost only 150-160 baht per person. The restaurant is located in E-Tong Village, near the market and pond, very easy to find.

Pool 2: This pool is adjacent to the first one but is less hot and less deep. It has a cement edge for sitting and soaking your feet while enjoying the natural surroundings. Pool 3: This is a small pool for children, with the lowest temperature and no depth, ideal for families and those who do not prefer very hot mineral water. 📍 Location: Hin Dat Subdistrict, Thong Pha Phum District, Kanchanaburi Province, Postal Code 71180 🕒 Open: 06:00 – 22:00 💰 Entrance Fee: 20 THB per person

Groups of 7 people, starting at a height of over 900 meters. The peak of San Nok Wua is 1,767 meters high. The walking distance is 7 kilometers. The path along the way is not hot. There are shady trees. There are only some parts that are a little hot. We think it's easy to walk. Walk continuously. When you reach it, you reach it. There are small and big ridges up there. You should go to both ridges in the morning and evening. We think the light is beautiful and the path is comfortable. You should visit them all. There is clean water up there that you can boil to cook. Walk down to get water for about 800 meters. We want to praise the officer a lot. He took good care of us. He fetched water, took pictures for us, and woke us up to watch the sunrise. We forgot to buy a urine bag, so he found one for us. He is really everything for tourists like us. Thank you very much. As for the AIS phone signal, TURE has good signal in some parts. We have to walk to find the signal near the edge of the cliff where there is a rope barrier. We use both companies. The bathroom has a partition for us to do our personal business. We put our business in a biodegradable bag and then throw it away at the public pond. For the trip, I have a friend who went to Khao Chang Phueak and threw it away at the Pom Pi viewpoint. On the way back, we hitched a ride at San Nok Wua to Bangkok. I'd like to hitch a ride and help split the cost of gas. 😁 #San Nok Wua #Khao Laem National Park #San Nok Lek #San Nok Yai #Kanchanaburi
