"Sao Chaliang Yai" or "Earth Pillar" is a sandstone pillar
shaped like two mushroom which is found scattered along a stone
courtyard in Pha Taem National Park, It is in Pho Sai district
while a more known and similar rock fromation is in Khong Chiam
District. The Sao Chaliang is a sandstone since the Jurassic
period that have been eroded by water and gravel for millions
years. These earth pillars can be found scattered throughout the
area in Pha Taem National Park. It is a mushroom-like
sandstone pillar caused by the process of decay and erosion of
the hard and soft rock for about 110 million years. The softer
rock was more eroded until it became a mushroom stalk while the
harder rock was less eroded ,and thus remained as a mushroom
cap. |
