Bat Cave Khao Yai National Park — Attraction in Nakhon Ratchasima Province

One time I went bats go half and half left and center. Not the best. But an other time was all right. The sound and the massiveness was amazing. Also right from the coffee is a small street so you can go there and wait to come. This is the best spot to view if you lucky to...
