AyG Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 Are those concrete blocks behind the fall?....there seems to be a lot of horizontal lines in there? I don't think so.

mancub Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 Oh shut up one and all. It doesn't even talk about entrance fees. Can't you stay on topic. The topic is waterfalls and beautiful fauna. I might go to visit if I have time how lovely. The topic is actually about manufacturing a tourist attraction from a place of natural beauty. It will be "open" to tourists soon . It may be free to visit, but it doesn't say that either . Follow the newly constructed tourist walkways ( whose maintenance you can possibly contribute to at the possibly newly constructed ticket booth ?) Doubtless one will also be encouraged and able to visit the orchards and purchase locally grown produce. It's both enterprising and praiseworthy for it's initiative. Without said enterprise, we would never be able to appreciate this attraction. It is also only natural to expect and accept to pay for this privilege . I hope the locals put pride above greed in this endeavour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
midzo Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 (edited) Acquire, then flash a thai drivers license and you will never pay ferang prices again at these places. I have never paid ferang prices at National Parks since I started showing my thai license. Didn't work for me on Koh Lanta last week. I gave the park a miss.

RTH10260 Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 Discovered? Surely local villagers have always known about this waterfall.They didn't just discover the waterfall, but they discovered a new money source. Yeah, the freshly selected 'Quality Tourists'.

garrya Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 That's ruined the place now, it will be teeming with plastic bottles and rubbish inside two months and the Orchids will 'disappear'' And not the Thais but the tourists are responsible for all the garbage everywhere in Thailand. What a load of ....... Have you ever seen a Thai village? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
featography Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 The talk about entrance fees is based on what? Not sure what your question is, but farangs pay 10x what a Thai does to visit national parks, which is why I refuse to go to any. I'd be taking my boy to places like this all the time if it wasn't for such a massive difference. Get a yellow book and pay the same as Thai's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very thoughtful of you to deprive your son of going somewhere where he would undoubtedly get a huge amount of enjoyment for the sake of, say, 180 baht. Massive amount of money, what are you going to spend it all on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

55Jay Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 I drove through Phitsanulok last week and barely slowed down between the 1st noodle shop and the tyre dump at the other end of town. This "new" waterfall is a gift! Hallejuha, praise the lord! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
