It is part of a limestone mountain that rises prominently in the middle of the forest, surrounded by lush vegetation of various sizes. In the past, when the forest was rich and abundant, this area was home to many kinds of wildlife, especially wild deer, which became the origin of the name Rong Kwang District, Phrae Province. When intertwined with a local legend telling the story behind a stone pillar shaped like a woman holding her child while waiting for the return of her beloved man, it gave rise to the name \u201cPha Nang Khoi Cave\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: helvetica;\">The cave is situated on a cliff approximately 50 meters high. It is a long tunnel about 150 meters in length and 10 meters in width. The cave curves like an elbow to the left and extends to the right in three separate sections. Inside, visitors can admire various formations of stalactites and stalagmites, including sparkling crystalline rock surfaces. Each section is equipped with lighting and informative signs explaining the historical background and the legend of Pha Nang Khoi, making the cave fully accessible for visitors. The cave is divided into 13 viewing points for tourists to explore.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;30px&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=&#8221;57490&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;30px&#8221;][vc_column_text]<span style=\"font-size: 18px; font-family: helvetica;\"><strong>The Legend of Pha Nang Khoi Cave.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: helvetica;\">Begins with a great love across social classes between Princess Aranyanee, a noble young woman, and Kanongdet, her beloved, during the era of the Saen Wi Kingdom. When the princess became pregnant, the couple decided to flee together. However, they were relentlessly pursued by soldiers through the forest. In an attempt to shoot Kanongdet, the soldiers missed and instead struck the princess in the chest. Struggling to escape, the couple eventually reached a cave, where the princess gave birth to a son. Filled with profound love, she decided to let her beloved escape to save his life, saying, \u201cI will wait here for you for all eternity.\u201d Through the power of her vow, she turned into stone while still holding her child in her arms.
