#NaturalWonders #100TravelTips 🪨 "Sam Phan Bok" When I first heard about this tourist attraction, I was confused... This tourist attraction is located outside the city, about 100 kilometers from Ubon Ratchathani city. It takes about an hour by car... Here we are at the Mini Grand Canyon of Thailand. 🍂 This place is located on the banks of the Mekong River. The nature that created "Sam Phan Bok" is the result of the strong currents of the Mekong River itself, which created large rapids that were eroded into more than 3,000 pools and holes. 🌊 And during the dry season, Sam Phan Bok will emerge from the water to be seen as a large hill of rapids in the middle of the Mekong River. The stunning beauty of the rocks eroded by water can be seen as an artistic image, depending on your imagination.
