Waterfalls and Bear Rescue












Tat Kuang Si is a beautiful spot with multi-tiered waterfalls, picnic areas, swimming holes, etc. It was 32 kilometers from the city and we took a sawngthaew, which is essentially a small pick-up with bench seats in the back. We were hesitant to go to at first expecting it to be like your ordinary tourist trap of a waterfall. We were taken off guard by the beautiful location.  We hiked up to the main waterfall and on the way stopped by the Bear Rescue area (strange combination -waterfall and picnic area with a bunch of rescued bears). It was well worth the excursion and we only wished we had left earlier in the day so we could have taken a plunge in the swimming hole.
