Ubon Ratchathani 2-Day Self-Guide Travel Guide

📍Overview of the trip 🏖️ Must-see attractions: From Pha Kham, walk along the cliff for another 300 meters to Pha Taem. This is the point where you can see the longest paintings found in Thailand, with a length of 180 meters. The paintings can be divided into 5 types: people, hands, animals, objects, and geometric shapes. Most of them are painted in red using hemetite or pottery, which is then ground into a powder mixed with egg white, vegetable oil, or resin. The paintings are large-scale animals that look like real life, such as elephants, giant catfish, turtles, and soft-shelled turtles. There are also prominent images, which are 2 triangles connected together. It is assumed to be a type of fishing tool. In the Isan dialect, it is called a tum, which is a woven bamboo tool. There are also images that are wavy lines. Some people say that it may be a continuous symbol of water. In this group, there are images of wild cows, dogs, which are external drawings, wolves running in a row, and images of unidentified quadrupeds because they have faded. In addition, there are clear wavy lines that some people think may be a symbol of water, which is the Mekong River, which is the closest. At this point, the difference in rock layers will be more obvious. There are both painting, stamping and spray painting. At this point, there will be barbed wire to prevent tourists from touching the paintings or from writing or destroying them. 💡 Caution: I recommend that you come here because it is very beautiful. There is a long nature trail. You can walk for half a day. If you come on a weekday, it is a bit lonely. There are not many tourists. The entire trail is quite far, but you can walk into the forest and see the beauty of nature, trees, cliffs, beautiful views of the Mekong River and various animals. Some parts of the trail are quite dangerous. It is a cliff, so there is nothing to block it. If you fall, you can fall. You have to be careful.
