Description and is it worth a visit
Huay Mark Liam or Huay Mak Liam Hot Spring is located on the territory of Lam Naam Khok National Park on the banks of the Kok River. This place is well equipped, the territory is well maintained, houses for hot baths have been built. In general, this is something like a wellness or a campsite in our way. Near the springs you can even ride elephants, and here you can stay overnight or even pitch a tent.
But the hot spring itself is one common pool, rather even a small lake, with very hot water, in which you can just cook. Ie, it is more of a natural attraction for a walk, and not at all a place to receive hot treatments. If you want to swim in the hot springs, you will either have to rent a house or visit other equipped Phasoet Hot Spring springs a couple of kilometers from here.
