Popular Post snoop1130 31125 Posted September 10, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted September 10, 2021 Despite being the rainy season, the yearning for a natural environment, peace, morning fog and a cool breeze has prompted tens of thousands of Thai tourists to visit the country’s national parks, since the easing of lockdown restrictions on September 1st. About 24,000 tourists visited Khao Yai national park in the north eastern province of Nakhon Ratchasima, which is the closest to Bangkok, since September 1st, including almost 8,000 a day over last weekend. The chief of the park told Thai PBS that he believes the key factor drawing so many people to the park is a news report, which went viral, about a bear seen eating an omelette at the Pha Trom Jai cliff, as well as other natural attractions, such as waterfalls and wild species, which emerge from the woods to graze in green fields and to eat wild fruits.

ThailandRyan 58121 Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 Show me the receipts for the ones that paid for entrance as all people regardless are charged. So a family of 4 would mean that they had 2k vehicles go through the main entrance. Sure I would love to head up that way, break out the tent and the camping gear and set up camp in one of the many campgrounds, but with it being the rainy season I do not want to be camping in a swamp. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Aussieroaming 6989 Posted September 11, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted September 11, 2021 Well eventually the omlette eating bear will have to head back to Makro for some fresh eggs, so I suspect that the tourists will be flocking to Makro next if the logic hold true. 2 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stargeezr 5475 Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 Wow, since people are not supposed to feed wild animals, the bears must be very intelligent. Eating an omelet is surprising. Amazing Thailand indeed.! Geezer Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
