Located in the Chom Bueng District of Ratchaburi, Thailand, the Grand Canyon in Ratchaburi is an extraterrestrial-like natural wonder that is sure to delight and impress. Even from a distance, one can see the crater filled with emerald green waters, which looks like a hidden lagoon created by rainwater.This place is unlike any other; surrounded by beautiful rock formations and hues of brown and orange that resemble those of a desert, visitors have compared this landmark as a 'mini Jurassic Park' or the perfect reproduction of NASA's lunar simulations! For those looking for some respite from city lights, you can explore its night sky for unparalleled stargazing – no telescope required! One only needs a three-hour drive away from Bangkok to visit this otherworldly spot.
