Phitsanulok can be considered a province with outstanding tourism attractions. Anyone who appreciates nature-oriented travel, historical exploration, and adventure should not miss "Pha Kho" in Nakhon Thai District.

     The "unseen" aspect of "Pha Kho" emerged from the discovery by locals who ventured into the forest and found various beautifully shaped forest rocks. Hence the name "Pha Kho" (literally means "Neck Cliff") because the peak of the rocks in this area resembles a human neck. This place also features rock carvings, scrapings, and prehistoric human traces, along with bizarrely beautiful natural stone sculptures.

     The characteristic of Pha Kho includes natural sculptures of huge red sandstone, approximately 15-16 meters wide at the base and about 35-40 meters high. The rocks rise above the treetops and, when viewed from the top of the cliff, the Neck Cliff stands distinctly above the woodland, and one can see a spot where light pierces through a circular hole quite clearly.

     Additionally, the stone in some areas has a four-sided, triangular tall shape. The surface of the rock has been eroded and weathered by rain and wind over time, creating an uneven texture. It bears a striking resemblance to the Buddhist stupa in India, standing prominently on the edge of a steep cliff.

     For those planning to visit Pha Kho, the distance from the parking spot to the top of the hill is approximately 4 kilometers. Travelers can hike and enjoy the lush Banyan forest or contact local guides in the area at +668 2774 7477.
