Besides beautiful beaches and clear sea, Krabi has to offer its guests a lot of interesting places to walk. You should definitely include in the excursion a visit to natural attractions, ancient caves and historical sites. The Tiger Cave Temple is considered an important symbol of Krabi. It has received its name because of the unusual shape of the stone located at the entrance. With its shape it resembles a tiger's claw; the cave is located at the foot of a high hill.
Not far from it the stairway is located, on which everyone can climb to the top of the hill and appreciate the panorama of the island. The stairway has 1237 steps, so climbing will be a good exercise for the curious traveler. On the island archaeological excavations were held for many years. During that time scientists have found a number of unique artifacts. You can see those archaeological findings in the Wat Klong Thom Museum; among exhibits presented here, there are collections of glassware, antique coins and jewelry.
On the grounds of a beautiful rainforest, beyond the mountains, there is Tham Chao Le cave. In addition to the incredible beauty of stalactites and stalagmites, tour participants will be able to see rock carvings dating back thousands of years.
