Description: |
|
Namtok Sarika is the most famous waterfall in NakhonNayok – and
for good reason. Located in Sarika Sub-district, the nine-tier
waterfall plunges down a cliff onto a forested hillside, and has
large pools at each tier, offering pleasant swimming spots.
Accommodation, restaurants and souvenir shops are available
nearby. Local products, including brooms and artificial flowers
made from wild pine, are sold in shops around the waterfall.
A famous revered senior monk, LuangPu Man, once lived in nearby
Sarika Cave during his hermetic meditations between 1917-1920. A
chapel can also be found at the top end of the cave. Nowadays,
monks and nuns continue to pursue inner-path meditation respites
in residences nearby. To get to NamtokSarika, drive along
Highway No. 3049 for about 12 kilometers, then take a left turn
to Highway No. 3050 and proceed for another 3 kilometers. The
waterfall is open to visitors from 8.00 am-5.00 pm daily. |
