#WinterTravel Tent camping lovers must come to #ThamPhaThip Wildlife Sanctuary In this cold weather, come and experience the cool air and good atmosphere. The camping ground is safe, or you can sleep in a clean hut. A huge hut costs 1,500 baht per hut and can accommodate 15 people. There are mattresses, pillows, and blankets provided. There is also hot water in the bathroom, so you don't have to worry about having a hard time taking a shower. This trip, I brought students to the camp. The students were impressed and said that they must organize another one next year.

The weather is nice these days. I would like to recommend Pha Mok Miwai viewpoint in Nong Phok District, Roi Et Province. You can go and watch the sunset. It is very beautiful. There are not many people. It is very private. You can sit and watch the sunset, sip cool water and the cold wind. It is very satisfying. For campers, you can set up a tent. There is a lawn for you to rent tents. Or you can rent a room or a house. You can have a party, grill, and bring drinks up. If you don't know where to go, try to experience the cold wind at least once. #Pha Mok Miwai #Camping Lovers #Fog #Sunset Viewpoint

📌Come to Roi Et and find a place to visit with cool weather and feel the cold weather around Roi Et. I chose Pha Mok Miwai. It is not a very big tourist attraction, but the weather is good and the view is beautiful. The view along the way is very good. It is fun to come with a group of friends. Some people come to set up a tent to sleep here or stop by to see the fog. It is worth it. If the weather is very cold, there will be a lot of fog, but when we went, it was not that cold. But we could see some fog. 👍🏻 More details: Pha Mok Miwai, Tambon Khok Sawang, Amphoe Nong Phok, Roi Et #Travel diary #We take you on a trip #Visit Roi Et #Pha Mok Miwai

Looking at the page, it looks like a place worth a visit, but when I got to experience it myself, hmm.. not so much. It has a countryside atmosphere in the rice field area. There are wooden boards for walking around to visit various points. It's quiet and you can feel the cool breeze. The coffee tastes normal, nothing special. The hot cappuccino came with hot water that was full of ants in the glass, so I had to ask for a change. There were only 2 types of bakery items on the counter. It seemed like there were few customers, so there wasn't much left. There weren't many people on the day I came. It wasn't that wow. #BeautifulCafeTellOthers

Today, we come to a new landmark of Nong Phok, Wali Land - Garden Cafe', which is not far from the district and famous tourist attractions of Nong Phok District. In addition to Nong Phok having natural attractions and beautiful temples, there is also a classic cafe surrounded by trees and many photo spots. Cafe lovers will not miss it. Let me tell you. Today, I will go and collect beautiful photo spots for you to see. #CafeReview #Share The croissants and coffee here are delicious. Haha

It is another Unseen place in Pha Nam Yoi Subdistrict, Roi Et Province. Everyone must be familiar with this name. It is a place near Phra Maha Chedi Chai Mongkol, but further up the mountain you will find a camping site in a botanical garden. The morning view has a beautiful light fog, along with watching the sunrise and looking far away you can see the windmills. It is a very impressive place. Escape from the hustle and bustle and relax in the cold! #Camping #Pha Kiew Lom #Sunrise Viewpoint

Nuea Koo Steak House is located at Ban Nong No, Nong Phok District, Roi Et Province. The atmosphere is good. There are many steak menus such as pork steak, beef steak, fish steak, mixed steak, as well as other spicy salad menus. Drinks, salads, fresh food, delicious and tempting. Clean tables, good atmosphere. If you pass through Nong Phok, don't miss it. You have to come and try it! #RestaurantReview #RoiEtRestaurant #SpicySalad

Huai Wang Nong Reservoir is a reservoir located between Phu Khao Thong Subdistrict, Nong Phok District, Roi Et Province and Kuchinarai District, Kalasin Province. It is a popular place for campers in Roi Et Province. When the rainy season arrives, people flock to set up tents to enjoy the cool breeze and waves like the sea. Or you can have a picnic and relax. When you travel, don't forget to help keep it clean. #VisitRoiEt #HuaiWangNongReservoir #MissNature #NatureTherapy

This trip was a family outing, including grandparents, one playful grandchild, my foreign husband, and myself—five people in total. We traveled during the long holiday for Asalha Puja and Buddhist Lent Day, so we anticipated that most places would be crowded. To avoid the hustle, we decided to visit only 1-2 spots in Mukdahan and then head to a riverside accommodation, which turned out to be a great decision. The temple we visited wasn’t too crowded, and the hotel we chose was incredibly relaxing. Here’s our short itinerary: 1. Phra Nam Yoi Temple (or Phra Nam Thip Temple): Located in Roi Et province but very close to Mukdahan, this temple houses the magnificent "Phra Maha Chedi Chai Mongkol." If you haven’t been there yet, I highly recommend it! You’ll need to park your car at the base and take the temple’s shuttle service to the chedi. The shuttle fee is donation-based. 2. Wiang Khong Hotel: A peaceful hotel with beautiful riverside views. It offers private spaces for relaxation at a very affordable price. We booked a room for only 1,100 THB, including breakfast. The hotel is conveniently located near restaurants and cafes, making it easy to find food. 🏖️ Environment/Facilities: The hotel is right by the Mekong River, with lush green lawns and private areas for kids to play.

Wat Phra Maha Chedi Chai Mongkol, located in Nong Phok District, Roi Et Province, is a magnificent and intricately designed large chedi that combines Central and Northeastern Thai art styles. This temple houses the sacred relics of the Buddha as well as the remains of renowned Northeastern Buddhist monks. It also serves as a center for Buddhist meditation practices. 🙏 Phra Maha Chedi Si Chai Mongkol measures 101 meters in width and length, and 109 meters in height. The dimensions of 101 meters correspond to the name of Roi Et Province, while the height of 109 meters honors King Bhumibol Adulyadej (Rama IX). The chedi also offers a scenic viewpoint, with the surrounding green mountains providing a stunning panoramic view.

For those who want a good camping place, I recommend Baan Ai-Un. This place is a place for renting camping and has accommodation for rent as a room next to Wang Nong Dam, Nong Phok District, Roi Et Province. The rental fee is very cheap, only 100 baht/night per person. The room rate is 500 baht. Don't worry for those who don't have a tent, they have tent rental services, grills, and food and drink shops. Or you can bring your own food to eat comfortably. When camping, it is considered that you come with just yourself. In the morning, the atmosphere is very beautiful, there is a light breeze near the dam. The owner of the accommodation provides the best service, the bathroom is clean. It is a very comfortable camping without any difficulty. 10/10

“Sweating today is better than crying tomorrow.” 🙏 Visit Pha Mok Miwai - The highlight is that there is a lot of fog, so it is nicknamed Pha Mok Miwai. - Come in the evening to watch the sunset (falling from the mountain 55) 🙏 Visit 1, get 1 free - Visit Phra Maha Chedi Chaimongkhon and then visit Pha Mok Miwai. - Because Pha Mok Miwai is behind Phra Maha Chedi Chaimongkhon. 🙏 Pha Mok Miwai is located on the top of the mountain, Tambon Phanam Yoi, Amphoe Nong Phok, Roi Et Province. - Open 06.30-17.00. We drove out of the parking lot of Phra Maha Chedi Chaimongkhon and turned left to the back of Phra Maha Chedi Chaimongkhon. There will be a sign to Pha Mok Miwai. We arrived very late in the evening until it was closed for service. There were no staff. So we walked around, took pictures, and then went back. #triptakeflytoaskfornewyearblessings #triptakeflytotravelchina #seaofmistisan #traveltoseaofmistisan #PhaMokMiwai #traveltoRoiEt #pleasefollow #travelingmonkdharma

“The stream of water flows to cool the body, the stream of Dharma flows to cool the mind.” 🙏Phra Maha Chedi Chai Mongkol - Some call it Pha Nam Thip - Some call it Pha Nam Yoi 🙏Located on Phu Phan mountain range - Located at Wat Pha Nam Thip, Tambon Pha Nam Yoi, Amphoe Nong Phok, Roi Et Province - It is a large pagoda with 6 floors. - Built as a religious puzzle (doing good deeds will lead you to heaven). - Walking up each floor requires faith because it is a spiral staircase, the higher you go, the narrower it gets. - When you reach the 6th floor, the last floor, you will be able to pay homage to the Buddha's relics. 🙏Luang Pu Sri Maha Wiro was the pioneer who started the construction. - Very beautiful, charming, you get both merit and satisfaction. #triptakesyoutoflyandaskfornewyearblessings #Trip.com #triptakesyoutoflyinChina #PhraMahaChediChaimongkol #PhraMahaChediChaimongkol101 #WatPhaNamYoi #WatPhaNamThip #RoiEtProvince #Pleasefollow #DhammaTravelBhikkhu

There are a lot of reviews of this shop. Many celebrities come to take pictures. We also want to take pictures. When we arrived at the shop, it was very good. Where is it super good?

Every picture that comes out is beautiful. #Khao Yai Cafe # Beautiful Accommodation Review #Heavengardenkhaoyai 🏖️ Environment/Facilities 💞 Reason for recommendation: Beautiful view, delicious hamburgers, and green tea is fragrant, sweet, delicious, and very rich.

This temple is a peaceful place for monks to practice Dhamma and perform their Buddhist duties. Therefore, traveling here requires great restraint. One of the highlights is the unusual cave, especially during the rainy season when water falls down from above, which is very beautiful. However, if you go during the summer, you will not find such an atmosphere. How to get there: Wat Tham Soda is about 30 kilometers from Nong Phok District. You must travel by private transportation, which takes about 20-30 minutes. #Worship #Worship9Temples #WorshipandMakeMerit #WatThamSoda #NongPok #RoiEt #RainySeasonAttractions #TravelIsan #Temple #Cave

Phra Maha Chedi Chai Mongkol is located in Phanamyoi Subdistrict, Nong Phok District, Roi Et Province. The chedi is large and exquisitely beautiful with intricate Buddhist art. The author has had the opportunity to visit and pay respects to this chedi more than ten times, and each time, they try to reach the highest level. This is because the 'topmost level houses the Buddha's relics.' However, those who wish to reach the highest level must be in good health and not afraid of heights, as the stairs are narrow and quite steep (see picture 8). Even if you can't reach the highest level, it's okay because each level has Buddha statues for worship. The interior of the chedi is peaceful and cool, making it a perfect place for prayer and merit-making. If you haven't been here yet, give it a try. I guarantee that once you visit for the first time, there will definitely be a second and third visit.

#summerdream The unseen of Tham Soda Waterfall is that it is not just a waterfall for us to stop by to admire its beauty or swim in like other waterfalls. There is also the wonder of the naturally occurring stone pagoda. In addition, it is a waterfall that we can walk to see from both the front and inside the waterfall. Because behind the waterfall, there is a rocky cliff that looks like a cave that we can walk into. Inside is also the place where the Buddha Sakyamuni Kodom is enshrined for tourists to stop and pay homage. You can see the beautiful waterfall and also worship the Buddha in the same place. It's so awesome!
