Found this online but can't find it on my map. Does anyone know where it is, and has anyone been there?

Phu Lang Ka, Phayao province

Aforementioned Ban Toei has great views, but you've got great views and you've got Great Views and Phu Lang Ka is absolutely in the latter category. Its ramshackle bungalows are perched on the edge of a sheer cliff that plunges down to the valley below. Within the valley there's a bunch of limestone outcrops -- think Ha Long Bay in the rice field -- and in the morning, the valley is bathed in mist with the limestone outcrops jutting out through the mist to the sky. The views will take your breath away.

The bungalows have been designed with the views in mind -- large open air terraces connected to what are admittedly very ordinary lodgings -- but who cares about old mattresses when you have a view like this? Pack a few good books, a hammock and your walking shoes and you're set. You can also organise trekking here -- both to the summit of Phu Lang Ka and to surrounding villages. Rustic but recommended. Allow at least three nights, as Phu Lang Ka is time-consuming to reach.

Gosh, Thailand has so many amazingly gorgeous places, hasn't she?! :D
