   - Place for isolating, meditating and purifying your mind
   Points of Interest & Landmarks • Religious Sites
   
   
   This meditation place is amazing about steps with roof paving through the cliff to the top. Along the walkway, there are space for strict monks to meditate, purify their minds from our real world motivation to reach nirvana. The temple vicinity isshady eith trees but on the way to the top , there is steps with wooden ladders , categorized to 7 floor according to 7 tiered buddhist heaven. Please start your day early in yhe morning , the temple opens at 8am for visitors , it’s a bit physical demanding for clombing up and bring a bottle of water to stay hydrated. 5th floor is best place for getting rest before heading up to 6th and 7th floor, the top is only forest without may manmade conrtuctions, and.walkway on the 6th foor is a bit narrow and altitude high defying the gravity.

5. 4.5 Phu Sing Bueng Kan (9 reviews)
   - Newly grand opening Hin Sam Wan( 3 whale shaped rocks phi Sing National park
   Spent More than 3 hours Mountains
   
   
   This unseen, newly opened tourist attraction in Bueng Kan , highlighted with Hin Sam Wan (whale shaped rocks). It’s in Phu Sing National park, so it’s about 1 hrs drive from Muang Bueng kan , parking your vehicle at provided space then contacting the officer for 4 wheeled drive car to tour on Phusing with price500baht/car. Car accommodates 4 people at front and about 6-10 pax on back. First stop is view point to inspire panoramic view of lower plain and if you come early at 5am in the morning , it’s spot for seeing sunrise among clouds. Nearby highlight Hin Sam Wan(3 whale shaped rocks) is on waking distance, we can go on 2 father and mother whale rocks, it’s cool upthere but too hot and sweaty among sunlight. After that, hopping on car to next stop Phu Sing gate, it’s natural colummns of rocks where cool breeze flow through with view of forest. The last stop is sacred well ( Sang). It’s very amazing.

6. 4.5 Tham Phra Waterfall (6 reviews)
   - Cool Place, Rocks get Slippery
   Wednesday: 8:00 AM - 5:00 PM Spent 2-3 hours Waterfalls
   
   
   I enjoyed the area quite a bit. It is a good hike and the ground is uneven so not for people with mobility problems. The best time to go is after rain (I go pretty often) because the water levels are higher. This unfortunately also makes the rocks and ground very slippery. I recommend bringing a change of clothes, good shoes with tread for the hike to the waterfall and sandals or flip flops for once you are there. Great place for photo opportunities just be careful with your equipment. My first time there I slipped off the shores edge and into the small river. Luckily the camera I was using was waterproof and I had left my bag with other belongings away from the shoreline. See more..
