Description

Martin Ellis - 05/08/2019

A red devil-like guardian, Phra Ya Yom, with a trident in one hand and a skull in the other protects the entrance, where a large mauve Buddha sits in meditation. The cave itself consists of a single dry chamber 40m long by 20m wide by 15m high and several short side passages without any features of interest.
