 These
falls lie 2km from the hot spring and 15km from the town of Betong. A
small waterfall originating from a nearby mountain and surrounded by a
shady forest, Ithasorn Waterfall is a pleasant place suitable for swimming
and relaxing.
 The
village of Piyamit located on a mountain surrounded by thick forest was
first settled by a group of people called the Thailand Joint-developers
in 1976. These people used it as an operation base for the Malaya Communist
Guerrillas to escape from air attacks and to store provisions. The village
houses a tunnel previously used as a headquarters stronghold for the guerrillas.
The tunnel, which took 40 - 50 people 3 months to dig, is approximately
1 km long and some 55 feet wide, and has a seating capacity of 200. Only
6 of the original 9 passageways are left to be seen.
