Description: |
|
There are 3 atria in this cave. In the first cave section, a
pond teems with myriad fish. In the second, stalactites and
stalagmites form shapes said to be similar to deities known as
KuanImBodhissatva and HokLokSio, the three Chinese gods. The
remaining atrium is actually a myriad of smaller caves, with
coral reef-like stone formations. The cave can only be visited
during the dry season. In addition, within the cave sits
LuangphoYai, a stucco Buddha image covered with black lacquer
and gold leaf from the Ayutthaya period. In the rear two more
large caves can be found: Tham Sam Khao and ThamThepPrathan.
There are two routes to get there. Drive for 12 kilometers from
Saraburi town along Mittraphap Road and turn left to KaengKhoi
District through the market. Continue for 8 kilometers over the
Adireksan Bridge. Alternatively, drive for 15 kilometers from
the town along Highway No. 1 to PhuKhaeWitthaya School and then
drive for 10 kilometers on the PhuKhae-KaengKhoi Road.
The cave is only open
on weekends from 8.00 am-6.00 pm. |
