I invite everyone to visit the temple and witness millions of bats in the middle of a flower field located on Khao Chakrach. This area features a trio of large limestone hills lined up side by side, which are ancient limestone mountains estimated to be around 2,000 to 4,000 years old. The largest peak, Khao Chakrach, stands majestically in the center, flanked by Khao Ming on the left and Khao Pha on the right. These impressive formations rise prominently along the road, making them easily accessible for tourists. At the foot of the hills, there is a botanical garden utilized for forest plantation by the Department of Forestry. This region is also home to the "Wat Tham Khao Chakrach," a Buddhist temple of the Mahayana sect. Inside the temple, you will find the ordination hall constructed in 1890, characterized by its concrete and steel structure. The monks' quarters are a mixture of brick and wood, and there are approximately 300 steps leading up to the viewpoint at the summit. One notable cave here is Khao Thalu, which features a replica of the Buddha's footprint and an observation point. The climb up to the cave rewards visitors with stunning views, allowing for a clear perspective of the beautiful scenery of Khao Chakrach district.
