Covering over 500 sq.km, Erawan National Park is surrounded by stunning scenery and houses the famous Erawan waterfall. The park is covered with 75% forest and if you're lucky you might just catch a glimpse of an elephant, wild monkey or even an eagle!
If you're unlucky you might come across one of our king cobras or pythons!
The whole area around the park is highlighted by some beautifully decorated pavilions which house gift shops, cafes and restaurants.
You can tour around the park in your own car but the best way to see the whole grounds is to take one of the park's own buses.
The driver will take you through each section, giving you excellent photo opportunities as well as getting "up close and personal" with several animals, most notably the giraffes who will "invade" the bus for some food...great fun!
Bowls of food to feed the animals can be bought from the main entrance for just a few Baht.
At the centre of the park is the central pavilion restaurant and show arena.
The restaurant itself sits overlooking a lake and is a good spot for a cold drink before heading off to see one of the many daily animal shows.
Muang Sing dates back to time of King Rama I (1782-1809), built as an integral part of his defences against the invading Burmese army.
