✨ Biciclette cafe khaoyai 🍃⛰️A cafe with a foreign feel, a cute shop, whether you take indoor or outdoor photos, it's amazing. The view is good, the light is good, the photos are really good, no kidding. We went at noon, the light was directly above our heads, but the photos we got were not worth it. Sometimes, the noon light is not enough, but not here. 🫶🏻 🍹There are drinks, bakery and food. 🍰🍝⏰️Mon-Fri 09.30 - 17.00 hrs.⏰️Sat-Sun 09.00 - 17.00 hrs.__________________________(The shop is about 10 km from Toscana.) #Khao Yai Cafe #Khao Yai #Khao Yai Tour #Biciclettecafekhaoyai 🚲#Dress up to go to a cafe #khaoyai #khaoyaicafe #Travel Thailand #How to take great photos #Travel Thailand

Coffee lovers must try this shop called Slow Laap, but you have to eat outside because they don't allow you to bring it into the Nam Phut Hot Spring. The shop is a simple shop with seating for you to sit and relax. The atmosphere is very nice, not too hot, not too expensive, and there are many menus. I recommend it. When we went, we sat and watched people rowing boats, which was fun. We were excited, lol. The shop is on the walkway to Nam Phut Hot Spring. 📍Address: Nam Phut Hot Spring, Khao Yai 💞Reason for recommendation: Delicious coffee at a good price, not expensive at all 💰Average price per person: 60-80 baht #KhaoYaiTourism #PakChongNamPhutHotShow #KhaoYai #CoffeeShop #Coffee

Very beautiful. The summer weather is still nice, not hot at all. There are a lot of deer. If you come to visit, don't feed them. And don't keep food in the tent or outside. Otherwise, the deer and monkeys will eat it all. For those who go hiking, be careful of leeches. There are a lot of them. Prepare any brand of mosquito repellent spray. Spray when you get bitten by a leech. Don't pull it out. It will bleed a lot. If we spray it continuously, it will stop clinging on itself.

💰Average price per person: 40 baht per person 💞Reason for recommendation: The rainy season has arrived, so I had the opportunity to come back to Khao Yai for the first time in a year. This time, it rained heavily, everything was green. I even saw a baby barking deer, so cute. The mother and her child ran to hide from the rain nearby. I want everyone to try visiting Khao Yai during the rainy season because it is very refreshing. I recommend going during the holidays because you will see beautiful fog. 🗓️Travel planning: You should come on a holiday because you will see a lot of people. If you drive and don't see any cars, it will be lonely. Hehe #KhaoYai #KhaoYaiNationalPark
