Most likely, regarding this place, I will not objectively Burst out into nature from Bangkok’s stone jungle and a little crazy. Just some puppy delight was experienced when It turned out here, although, think, hot springs, they are almost in each province is there. But there is something special about this place. after all, and most likely not the sources themselves, but in the aggregate the whole a park. But most of all I was hooked by a green valley dotted with dark stones, I probably have some kind of weakness for such landscapes.
Initially, I thought to drive them past, because, for example, the sources in Kampeng Pet once did not impress me at all. In theory there it is necessary to go soak in the hot healthy baths, and not for photos or impressions. But in Fang hot springs everything turned out otherwise.

A geyser springs every 20-30 minutes. 99% sure he is artificial, but the sight looks quite natural. Fountain high, 10–20 meters, slightly higher than the forest beats, and splashes scatter in all sides, as many as the trees without leaves stand. Unfortunately, in afternoon could not find a good angle, all the time the sky turned out to be lit.

If it were not so far from the place where we are now if we live in Thailand, then I would come here with my family several days with an overnight stay. More than any resort will be! Disconnected would have internet, put a laptop in the drawer and just enjoyed the views and pure ether. The place to this is very convenient, at the moment it is the best for me!
Here I would live a couple of days
As a result, I spent 3-4 hours here, although I didn’t want to go. That’s how it is! I walked, photographed, looked around, He inhaled deeply the air, absorbed the atmosphere of the place with each cell. I didn’t want to leave at all, my brain turned off and I was just — I was in some kind of pleasant prostration — but! If you suddenly go and will not find there’s nothing special for yourself, mind you, don’t blame me 
As I have already The above said, there is no objectivity in my report.
