Erawan National Park-Great Sightseeing

Erawan National Park 65 Kilometres from Kanchanaburi along route 3199, this 550 square kilo metre national park is the site of the seven-tiered Erawan Waterfall, which is widely regarded as being one of Thailand's ties (the hightest being number seven) contains a pool ideal for swimming and is particularly picturesque. The park mixed deciduous forests and waterway support a wide variety of mammals, reptiles, amphibians, birds and freshwater fauna.

The park is a popular weekend and public holiday destination, but is considerably less crowded during weekdays. Bungalow accommodation and camping facilities, and a daytime food market, are available.
