Tham Khao Luang 

Tham Khao Luang is, as the name tells, another cave. This was certainly another very impressive site, except for the monkeys. The main cave contains beautiful stalagmites and stalactites, several Buddha images and has a big hole in the ceiling thru which the sun creates a beautiful sun beam into the cave. Further into the cave is a large reclining Buddha and more holes in the ceiling for further light effects. Unfortunately this is a favorite spot for professional photographers who then put up their tripods and organize things around to make it fit their agenda for next years wall calendar.
