Location
Wat Khao Tambon is on the north side of the H205 18.5km from Chai Badan. From the wat, steps lead up to the lower entrance of the cave.
Description
The cave is entered through a concrete naga head. At the start the passage is 3m wide and 3.5m high, but soon gets bigger. The first part of the cave is reasonably horizontal, then steps lead up to a second entrance, 5m high and 20m wide. There are many statues both inside and outside of the cave. The cave is in an isolated limestone hill, the northern end of which is being quarried away.
