A beautiful large reservoir was created by the construction of the Cheow Lan Dam (also known as the Ratchaprapha Dam) across the Paseang river; this Cheow Lan Lake occupies some 165 sq km. The vast area of water is actually retained by several small dams and the surrounding rock formations are overgrown with lush jungle. This creates spectaculair sceneries all throughout the year. Even in raining season it is a very beautiful place as the rain, low clouds and limestone karsts give such a beautiful contrast and atmosphere.
