About Land Split (Wua Laen) Pai

A dramatic geological fissure that opened in 2008 after heavy rains caused the earth to split, creating a 100-meter long, 3-meter deep crack through a farm's corn fields that has become a quirky tourist attraction. An unusual natural formation that somehow became one of the most visited sites near Pai.

Pai Hot Springs
