Description: |

Sai Khu Waterfall is one of the most popular tourist
attractions, located at Moo 3, Tambon Ron Thai, Amphoe Bang
Sapan, Prachuap Khiri Khan Province; in other word, it is
situated in the west of Petchakasem Road near Tenasserim Hills
or 20 kilometers off the heart of the city. You can take Highway
Route Number 3196 from Amphoe Bang Sapan to Way Pokto’s
intersection, turn right, and you will see a small wooden
bridge, cross the brook about 5 kilometers and Sai Khu Waterfall
is right in front of you.
Sai Khu Waterfall is a natural
medium-size waterfall of which the beauty is remarkable and the
water flows all the year. Each of its floors possesses unique
charm. Furthermore, this spot has 3 large floors and the other
ones are less and less larger. For the second, third, and fourth
floors, there are shady trees for the tourist to sit back and
play water. Despite its height, the most visited floors are the
fourth, fifth, and sixth.
The fourth floor originated the
name of this waterfall “Sai Khu” as on a cliff top stand two
mighty banyan trees (Sai in Thai). The trees shelter their
surroundings and create the cozy atmosphere for playing water
and taking a rest.
Moreover, the second most beautiful
floor is the fifth as it possesses large stone cliff and rivers
flowing along the stones about 50 meters
Not only going
up to the sixth floor by climbing or crawling up the fairly
steep and damp cliff but also the banyan tree’s hanging root
render the floor truly unique and challenging for the adventure
lovers. Climbing up is permitted but it takes extreme care for
all tourists. Besides, wild animals can be seen here. |
