One of stunning caves in Thailand

#postandearn #prachuapkhirikhan I'll never forget my hike to Phraya Nakhon Cave - that climb really tested me! The trail was much steeper than I expected, with uneven steps and exposed roots that made me stop to catch my breath several times. My shirt was completely soaked through by the time I reached the top. But oh, that first glimpse inside the cave took my breath away all over again. Sunlight poured through the cavern opening like a spotlight on the royal pavilion, making the whole scene glow with this ethereal golden light. I remember just standing there dumbstruck, forgetting all about my aching legs. I ended up sitting on one of the rocks for nearly an hour, watching how the light patterns changed as the sun moved. Even the exhausting hike back down couldn't wipe the smile off my face - though my knees certainly complained about it! That magical moment in the cave made every drop of sweat completely worthwhile. I still look at my photos sometimes and can't quite believe I got to experience such a place in person.
