1. 5.0 Open Air Museum Period Film Preservation Center (1 review)
   - Back to the past.
   Wednesday: 8:00 AM - 6:00 PM Spent 1-2 hours Speciality Museums
   
   
   The little private museum is owned by uncle Manit, a former voice actor and Thai herb expert. Filled with great passion, he was very proud to present us his collections, such as many vintage Thai movie posters and old movie projectors with film reels (8 mm/16 mm/35 mm). He provided us many interesting facts about history of movie projection in Thailand, then demonstrated the use of these vintage equipments by activated them to project a film for us. He also kindly gave us a hand of bananas to eat during enjoyed "Chang: A Drama of the Wilderness", a 1927 black-and-white silent film (and the first Thai's pseudo-documentary film), which he performed a live dubbing of all characters. Moreover, as Thai herb expert, he also explained us the knowledge about Thai herbs. The museum was free entrance. However, we bought some Thai herb products to support the place. Highly recommend! P.S. Visitor should make an advance appointment. See more..
   
2. 4.5 Wat Chong Kham (3 reviews)
   - Grand and serene.
   Spent 1-2 hours Historic Sites • Religious Sites
   
   
   This tranquil temple is an imitation (in precise scale) of Mahabodhi Temple in Bodh Gaya (India) where Buddha enlightened. Inside the temple contains 3 Buddha statues in 3 different colors (the black one, the white one, and the golden one) and many artifacts. Recommend to walk around (outside) the pagoda to see its pattern and greenish rural view. See more..
   
3. 4.0 Lom Phu Khiew (8 reviews)
   - Blue lagoon.
   Bodies of Water
   
   
   Geological phenomenon about 280 millions years ago created a sinkhole which later turned into a nearly rounded emerald pond of diameter about 80 m in the midst of the greenish mountain. Visitors must climb 200 m stairs (50 m up and 150 m down) to the point where visitors can admire the beautiful view of the pond. At the time when we visited, the pond was plenty of fish (and leaves) in clear water. It should be noted that playing in the water is not allowed. See more..
