Khao Ngu Stone Park, Ratchaburi Province

Walk across the bridge over the lake in the valley "Khao Ngu Stone Park" A natural tourist attraction not far from Bangkok. It was originally a source of rock blasting. Later, it was transformed into a place for relaxation. We will find beautiful views of nature. It used to be an important source of rock blasting and crushing in Thailand since the early Rattanakosin period because it was good quality cement. Later, both the government and the public saw the deterioration of the landscape and the scenery. In addition, Khao Ngu is an ancient religious site. Therefore, the concession for blasting and crushing rocks in this area was cancelled. After the concession was cancelled, Khao Ngu became an abandoned mine and was in a state of disrepair. Ratchaburi Province developed Khao Ngu into a public park and an archaeological tourist attraction. A large stone Buddha statue was built on the cliff face by shooting a laser beam down the cliff face. There are also many monkeys living in the surrounding area. Be careful not to hit the monkeys when driving in.
