Sights
- Mo Hin Khao (มอหินขาว) is an iconic rock formation on the sward, similar to Stonehenge of England. Therefore, it is known as "Thailand Stonehenge", regarded as both the symbol and the landmark that is best known for the national park. In addition, this place was also selected to be one of the 2009 TV commercial locations of Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) under the campaign "12 Months 7 Stars 9 Suns" (12 เดือน 7 ดาว 9 ตะวัน) presented by Thongchai "Bird" McIntyre.[3]
- Pha Hua Nak (ผาหัวนาค), cliff and viewpoint that are not far from Mo Hin Khao (about 4 km (2 mi)). Pha Hua Nak is about 905 m (2969 ft) above average sea level and can see the Mueang Chaiyaphum below, with cool temperatures throughout the day. On the opposite side of Pha Hua Nak is the Phang Heuy mountain range (เทือกเขาพังเหย). Its name refers to "Naga [mythical serpent]'s head cliff", according to its characteristics.[4]
- Pha Kluai Mai (ผากล้วยไม้), another viewpoint cliff of the park.
- Hin Prasart (หินปราสาท), a striking natural upright rock apart from Mo Hin Khao.
- Pratu Khlong (ประตูโขลง), a strange stone that looks like a beautiful arch.
