I once wondered what was here, why so many people were interested in visiting.

After reading various stories, I felt a strong desire to experience them for myself.

Where there are mountains shaped like dreams, and where there is simple, down-to-earth happiness.

Another one of my travel destinations, Muang Makkasan LIFE FOR TRAVEL https://www.facebook.com/PEESAT.PANTIP/ During this summer season, the route along Khao Hin Muprang is full of the yellow color of Ratchaphruek flowers on both sides of the road.

The scenery is beautiful and stretches as far as the eye can see, even though the roadsides are dry and barren of agricultural cultivation.

I use the route number 11, Wang Thong - Tak Fa.

Before turning left to Amphoe Noen Maprang, Phitsanulok Province

I use this route quite often to connect to the north.

To avoid traffic jams during the festival, as there are not many cars on the road.

And there are stories to keep us entertained throughout the journey.

From the skyline, turn left to Amphoe Noen Maprang, about 20 kilometers.

The road is relatively good, surrounded by rice fields and rubber plantations.

The first destination is Ban Rak Thai, Noen Maprang District, Phitsanulok Province.

The first step feels like being in the south.

Because both sides of the road are full of rubber plantations, including fruit orchards.

Visiting Baan Rak Thai requires a trip to the viewpoint, the highlight of any visit here.

This area is called "Baan Suan Chom View Homestay, Ban Rak Thai".

The viewpoint features a unique heart-shaped treetop swing.

It's said that if you come to Khao Hin Muprang and don't sit on this swing, it's like you haven't been to Khao Hin Muprang at all.

The side of the swing set will be a treehouse, a small shed built on a tree.

Camping is available with supervision, convenient bathrooms, and beautiful views.

On a day when the weather was pleasant, at the end of the rainy season and the beginning of winter.

The owner of the accommodation told me that this spot is one of the most beautiful places to watch the sea of mist.

Tourists have been flocking to try the sky swing.

It may look scary, but it's strong and quite safe.

Overall, this point is quite interesting.

Because it is relatively quiet, there are 3-4 accommodations under construction.

Ideal for overnight stays and enjoying the sea of fog in the winter.

Tonight, I would like to try pitching a tent and staying overnight at this treehouse for only 150 baht.

Although it is summer, when the sun sets and the wind blows, it feels cool and comfortable, not hot.

In the vicinity of the viewpoint, there are also 3-4 charming and affordable accommodations available for around a hundred baht.

Most accommodations are simple homestays at affordable prices, built facing the viewpoint.

This point will be a place to stay called Kanitha Homestay.

The atmosphere is beautiful, surrounded by rubber plantations.

Each accommodation will have a balcony that extends out to enjoy the breeze and the view.

Even in the summer like this, the morning air is quite cold.

The wind is quite strong, there may not be a sea of fog, but it is beautiful in another way.

There are cute corners to capture impressive moments in a simple and comfortable way.

When the rain falls, the land is once again blessed with abundance and moisture.

I'm not sure if these peaceful chairs are still available in this small corner.

During my time here, there may have been some visitors due to the Songkran holiday, but they came and went.

One sentence from the owner of the accommodation still echoes in my mind.

"This place is like my home. I was born here. I am happy to be here."

"Even though there's not a single guest, I'm still happy to be here."

A new tourist destination in a little-known land.

Sometimes happiness is simply present within itself, without the need for crowds or convenience stores.

Just let ourselves experience it, and when we've had enough, we walk away.

It is enough to leave only the beautiful things as they were, waiting for the day to return again...

This corner will be a place to stay called Suan Khao Tu, Phu Khao Fang.

Simple accommodation as before, facing the viewpoint.

A lovely corner to sip coffee and enjoy the view.

There is a corner to sit and relax comfortably, with a 360-degree view.

As mentioned earlier, there are only 3-4 resorts in this scenic viewpoint area.

Each of them has only recently opened, and the design is not luxurious.

But I feel comfortable and relaxed when I visit here.

Most of the area around this viewpoint is planted with various fruits alongside accommodation facilities.

Whether it is mango, rubber, corn, cashew nut, etc.

From Ban Rak Thai, I took the route to Noen Maprang District to continue to Ban Mung.

Another major destination that should not be missed when visiting Noen Maprang

Along the way, you will be greeted by the view of rice fields with towering mountains as a backdrop, creating a beautiful scenery.

Although it may seem dry now, I believe that when the rain returns,

This must be heaven on earth.

The majority of the population in Naen Ma Prang are primarily engaged in agriculture.

The landscape is mostly rice fields interspersed with high mountains, connecting to Thung Salaeng Luang National Park.

A picture of a palm tree in a rice field with mountains in the background and birds flying around.

And here are pictures of the Thai way of life that I am proud of.

The first step into Ban Mung district, I felt an indescribable excitement when I saw the strangely shaped mountains.

The cornfield is in full bloom with a backdrop of mountains. It's hard to believe that this is Phitsanulok.

The closer you get to Ban Mung, the more impressive the mountains become.

I used to think that there were a lot of cornfields in Chiang Rai and Nan.

And I also think that there are strangely shaped limestone mountains in the south.

But then my mind suddenly changed.

Every atom on the land of Thailand has a lot of land to explore.

And there are many more beautiful atoms in our country that have not yet been revealed.

Ban Mung, a small village surrounded by limestone mountains.

From the entrance to the village, the grandeur of the backdrop can be seen from afar.

The majestic beauty of the mountains, in contrast to the simple way of life seen in the countryside.

This may be a harmonious blend, deeply embedded, concealing beauty, waiting to be admired from afar.

No matter where you are, religion is always a spiritual center, a center of the community.

For this land, too, there is Wat Ban Mung, a center of faith.

The temple grounds are home to numerous caves of various sizes, making it a popular tourist destination in Ban Mung.

Within the village, there are many small streets and alleys connecting to each other.

The houses are built in a simple style, with a raised platform underneath for daily activities.

Based on visual estimates, there are likely to be nearly a hundred houses.

Weaving through the side streets of the village

This area is not very crowded, and the mountains in the picture are strangely magnificent.

Cars rarely pass by the side of this village.

Mostly farmers running through the fields.

The surrounding area is also used for the cultivation of various crops.

Another highlight and unseen of this Ban Mung is the evening time.

Around 6 pm, millions of bats will fly out of the cave in this mountain range.

I feel happy to be here with the simple elements.

From the beginning of my arrival at Ban Mung, if I were to choose to mention only the good things, I would divide them into two categories.

The first is the beautiful and unusual mountains, and the second is the warm and welcoming lifestyle of the villagers.

Perhaps seeing the lives of the villagers

A way of life based on interdependence and a strong sense of community.

Sometimes I can't help but wonder if we, as tourists, are intruding too much.

However, the most prominent response was the friendly smiles that were extended to us, the visitors.

The world is a land that no one knows from being told.

But we must travel to get to know it for ourselves.

"Thank you all for following this travelogue series. See you again in the future. Goodbye."
