Pang Sida National Park, Sa Kaeo.
This park is both a butterfly watching spot and a waterfall destination. For those who love nature, you can take your partner here for a romantic time. A little tip: visit during the summer if you want to see butterflies, but if you want to enjoy the waterfall, go during the rainy season. This makes Pang Sida National Park, Sa Kaeo, a great destination for both summer and rainy seasons. No matter when you go, the atmosphere is different but equally impressive. Read more at

Butterfly Watching at Pang Sida National Park, Sa Kaeo
Went during the butterfly watching festival. The entrance fee to the park is 40 baht per person and 30 baht for a car. Inside, there are accommodations and camping spots available. However, for day-trippers, there are 3 main attractions:
The first spot is Pang Sida Waterfall, which has parking, a coffee shop, and park facilities. As of June 29, 2014, the waterfall had no water.
The second spot is a butterfly viewing pavilion. This is a checkpoint where visitors must register if they want to go to the viewpoint. There are a lot of butterflies here, but the staff suggests that the best time to see them is early in the morning from 8 to 10 am, and if it rains, the butterflies won't come out.
The third spot is the viewpoint. The road from the second spot to this one is a gravel path, but it's drivable. The road has some potholes. When I went up, it had just stopped raining and the road was still okay. Also, because of the rain, there was fog at the top, which was a pleasant surprise.
For those who want to go up, it will take some time. There are no restrooms at the top, but you can use the ones at the camping area before heading up.

The Park that are famous for Butterflies
#thailandtrip This national park is famous for butterfly watching. The are a few spots that are very convenient for tourist to observe several species of butterfly licking salt during certain time of the year. Better check before you come to make sure it is the right timing. You can come here by car, bus or train. It takes around 3.30 - 4 hours from Bangkok to Sa Kaeo. The national park is far from Sa Kaeo bus station around 30 - 40 minutes. But travel is all worth it!
