Khao Sam Roi Yot National Park

  • Phraya Nakhon cave
    Later kings also visited the area, especially the Phraya Nakhon cave. The cave consists of two caverns, illuminated by the collapsed roofs. For the visit of King Chulalongkorn in 1890 the Kuha Karuhas pavillon was built inside the cave. Later King Vajiravudh as well as the current king Bhumibol Adulyadej visited the cave. The Khao Sam Roi Yot National Park was created on June 28 1966. It was enlarged on April 1 1982.

  • Kuha Karuhas pavillon
    Phraya Nakhon cave with the Kuha Karuhas pavillon. The area of the Khao Sam Roi Yot was probably the site where King Mongkut convened with European guests on August 18, 1868 to observe a total solar eclipse. The king was very interested in astronomy and had calculated the date and location of the eclipse himself. However he contracted malaria during that event, and died shortly later - Khao Sam Roi Yot National Park (Thai: เขาสามร้อยยอด), Sam Roi Yot district, Prachuap Khiri Khan Province, Thailand
