From the cliff, you can walk down for about 7-8 mins to admire a field of Siam tulip flowers.

To protect the beauty of the field, the employees try to keep the visitors off it by providing a boardwalk to walk on and imposing a fine of ฿800 (~USD22.78) for those strolling on the field.

The flowers bloom beautifully in the rainy season, which is from June to August. So, we recommend visiting the place during this time as it’s the best time to see blooming Siam tulip flowers covered by mist.
