Location
Wat Tham Kwang, also known as Wat Song Sila or Wat Tham Sila, is 2km south-west of Ban Hin Rong. It is within the caldera of Phu Wiang National Park, but is not part of the park.
Description
Tham Sila is just a small overhang that has a simple shrine with some Buddhas. This is a large exposure of cross-laminated sandstone which has many caves and a large trough. It is thought that the trough is the remains of an eroded salt trough. Some salt deposits can still be found on the roof of the caves.
