6 Things you should know about Naka Cave in Thailand

Here is the 6 questions about the Naka cave. 

1. What does the cave look like? 

The cave named Naka Cave (Naga, Naca, Nagkarat) because of the shape of the stones in the area look like snake scales. It’s the cave that has the giant snake scale stones in the area, It’s hidden in the jungle in the hill, that is about 2 kms deep. 

2. Is the cursed King story real? 

In the story of Lord Ue-Lue that I have mentioned in another video in my channel, it’s not a story made up by myself. The story is a local mythology that has been told for a long time, so as soon as the cave was found, people started to relate the story to the cave. This could also be the religion things. We as Thai people have been told about the Naka and the Buddha, if you visit temples in Thailand you will find the statue of the Naga and the Buddha, which the Naka will be behind the Buddha to protect the Buddha from the storm at the time. So if the Buddha is exist, The Naka story should be possible too. 

3. when was the Naka cave found?

There was no information about who found the cave and when exactly they found the cave. But the national park guy told me that the cave was found last month which is May 2020, it is still not a long time since it was found. So for you to find information about this cave, you might consider subscribe to my channel and I will make the new video as soon as I get the update. 

4. how to get to the cave?

The Naka cave is located in Phulanka National Park which is in Beung Khong Long District,  Beung Kan province, in Thailand. You can check the link to the location in the pinned comment or the video descriptions. The link will lead you to Chai Mong Kon temple which is the closest location, it is the entrance to the journey to the cave.At the beginning of the stairs that you will have to go through, you will see the Naka’s on the side of the stairs, after the end of the concrete stairs, you have to continue walking on the steel stairs, after that might be no more steel stairs, but you will still have to follow the trail to the cave. If you’re worried to be lost in the jungle on the way to the cave, you can ask the stuff in the National Park to take you to the cave. The location of the cave is under the hill and the hill is very deep, It is about 2 kms deep. Most of the people who have visited Phulangka National Park always went up to the hill because it’s a good view from up there, but no one has seen or considering that under the hill is the Naka cave which is a beautiful cave that is hidden in the jungle. 

5. Is a giant snake head stone found there too? 

The giant snake head stone picture that’s being viral on internet is not from Thailand, that picture is the giant snake head Stone from Laos. But that doesn’t mean at the Naka cave has only the body part without the head. On the 9th of June 2020 I have got the news from the national park guy. The giant snake head stone was found in the area. it lays on the ground slightly from the mountain. After I saw the picture and look at its eyes, I think it’s feeling bored or sad. I’m waiting until I will be there and see it with my eyes to confirm if the head and the body are connected.

6. When will the cave be open?

At the time the cave was found, the National Park has been closed due to the world situation. The schedule of opening the cave and the National Park is not for sure yet. There is an estimation from the national park office. The national park and the cave could be open next month which is July 2020. Anyway the schedule can be changed any time due to the situation.
