"Salt well" here.

If your life needs him...

We recommend a tourist destination

Amidst the mountains for you, and that is...

"Bo Kluea"

It is suitable for resting your body and mind from months of tiring work.

Come and experience nature, breathe fresh air, and recharge your batteries.

The highlight of this place, as the name suggests, is **"salt."**

The salt produced is rock salt, obtained from the evaporation of saltwater beneath the mountain.

Currently, there are two ponds: the north pond and the south pond.

Villagers take water from each of these ponds and boil it in large pans.

As the water begins to dry, salt crystals form on the pan. Villagers then use wooden paddles to scoop up the salt crystals

and place them in baskets suspended above the pan, allowing the water clinging to the salt crystals to drain back into the pan.

Once the water has completely evaporated, the process is complete, and they begin scooping up new water.

Each salt-boiling session takes approximately four hours.

There are several ways to get to Bo Kluea. If you are driving, you can go through Santisuk District. However, the van driver told us that locals prefer to take the route through Pua District and drive through Doi Phu Kha National Park. You can enjoy the scenery along the way and you will eventually reach Bo Kluea. If you want to take a more relaxed journey by public transportation, you can take the bus from Nan city to Pua. Once you arrive in Pua, there is another bus that will take you to Bo Kluea.

For accommodation, I stayed at "Mon Sai Lom".

Those who are interested can contact the accommodation at 081 111 2532.

The accommodation is in the form of small, cute huts. The weather at night is cool and comfortable.

The bathroom is a shared bathroom, so please let me know in advance if you have any limitations.

Let's talk about photography.

During my recent visit to Bo Kluea, I had a specific final image in mind. I wanted to capture a photograph of the salt-boiling process, a quintessential image for anyone visiting the area.

However, I envisioned more than just the boiling process. I wanted to include the smoke rising from the boiling pan and the external light filtering through the smoke.

With these conditions in mind, I started by waking up early and heading to the salt fields. My first stop was the Bo Tai field.

While there was smoke present, there was no external light.

I then walked to the north pond, which was about 500 meters away.

At first glance, I was disappointed to see that it was closed.

But then I noticed smoke coming from a house nearby.

Curious, I walked over to the house and saw that they were boiling salt.

The light filtering into the house was exactly what I had envisioned, so I couldn't resist taking some photos.

The way you capture the scene depends on your perspective.

This is how I saw it.

Enjoy your travels and capture beautiful memories.

Remember to preserve the tourist attractions so that others can experience them as you have.

Here are some photos of the surrounding area of the salt mine.
