Phraya Nakhon Cave

Phraya Nakhon Cave is named after Phraya Nakhon, the ruler of Nakhon Sri Thammarat on the southern peninsula of Thailand. At the time of his reign, two centuries ago, Nakhon Sri Thammarat was an independent city state. Phraya Nakhon travelled by ship, when he was forced ashore by a violent storm. So he discovered the cave by "accident".
