Sightseeing
This is about some of the great day trips you can do from our Homestay.
A 20 minute scooter ride takes you through Hang Dong to this lovely spot in the Obkahn Natioanl Park. You can swim in the river by the cafe, walk in either direction (up or downstream) and enjoy some great views along the way. Good for picnics and easy walking. Along the way you pass The Grand Canyon water theme park, another great day out.
