Limit on park visitors

CHIANG MAI: -- The Suthep-Pui National Park has started imposing an overnight visitor limit of 500 at its five attractions, but the limit on visitors at Wat Doi Suthep and Phuping Palace will be up for further discussion.

Huai Kaew Falls will take up to 1,100 visitors an hour, Wang Bua Ban Falls 100, Mae Sa Falls 1,300, Mhok Fa Falls 190 and Tad Mhok Falls 100.

Park chief Amporn Panmongkol said the National Park, Wildlife and Plant Conservation Department's policy to limit the number of visitors at the 10 top national parks was a bid to allow natural resources to recover.

That's hilarious. :D

Thanks for posting, good start of my day. :o

Huay Kaew falls is especially funny, this one could be mistaken for the municipal rubbish dump. In order to let nature recover, they might consider collecting some trash, oh, once a week or so.

It's interesting though that there isn't any gate or checkpoint for Huay Kaew falls and Bang Bua Ban... The latter getting by far the most visitors of any waterfall in the park.
