Most travellers to southern Thailand dismiss the city of Surat Thani as nothing more than a jumping-off point to Koh Samui. However, the province of Surat Thani abounds with many unique experiences from exciting cave tours to floating bungalows on the spectacular Cheow Lan Lake, and off-the-beaten track attractions from scarcely known lookouts to authentic riverside markets.
The Khao Na Nai Luang Dharma Park, a Buddhist temple area southeast of Khao Sok National Park, in Surat Thani province, Thailand, is well off the beaten track for both international and domestic tourists, but those who make the effort to visit are enthralled at its beauty and magnificent setting surrounded by rainforest-clad limestone karst mountains.
