In the friendly town of Krabi, there are hotels, shops and restaurants, and yet it still retains its natural charm.

The two mountains which straddle the Krabi River, in the town of Khao Khanap Nam, are a stunning example of stalagmites and stalactites. At Sah Bok Khorani, one of the eight big ponds nestling in a shady forested area, lays a replica of the Lord Buddha's footprint carved from wood.

A small waterfall, running down from the mountain in steps, creates a magical emerald tinge to the big pond.
