Phitsanulok's Phu Hin Rong Kla National Park and the Blooming White Roses

As the coming of summer has brought drought and heat to the country, people’s minds are starting to think about escaping to somewhere cool for relaxation. A get away to the beach and islands usually comes first to ones mind, but may not be possible for different reasons. Going to the mountains could possibly be another good choice for those who love to explore the woods and go trekking and still escape the heat.

Once a former base of the Communist party, Phu Hin Rong Kla Natural Park is a recommended destination to go somewhere for cooler temperatures. Because of its elevation above sea level, the mountain is blessed not only with reduced temperatures but with unique natural resources making it a good destination.
