Let’s take a short trip to Kanchanaburi ‘E-Tong Pilok’ for 2 days and 1 night to breathe in some fresh air.
Kanchanaburi is a very popular tourist destination because other than its plentiful nature, it is also not far from Bangkok. Aside from the beautiful nature, the province is also famous for the waterfront rafts and adventure activities.
.
On this trip, we will take everyone to an old village called ‘E-Tong’ located in a far valley of Pilok Sub-district. The magic of this village happens during the winter and the rainy season, where it looks like a fairytale because it will be covered with fog and cold air. Therefore, it’s attracting tourists to come continuously. The village used to be a prosperous mining site in the past. After its closure, the mining equipment was left behind, as well as this beautiful village in the middle of nature. Therefore, it attracts tourists to come and appreciate its charm.
.
The village also has many famous attractions. First, ‘Jokkradin Waterfall’, a waterfall with cool water flowing all year round. Second is ‘Nern Chang Suek’, a viewpoint where the sun goes down and is one of the most beautiful sunset viewpoints in Thailand. Lastly is the ‘Pilok Mining Temple’ which is located on a hill that welcomes locals and tourists to pay homage. If you want to embrace nature, just follow our video!
