Klong Klai is an important canal of Krung Ching that’s like its main blood vessel. Lots of people go rubber raft riding on it during the rainy season. For those who love to trek and study nature, Krung Ching is interesting because of its fertile wild forest which are full of tree ferns or Wan Maha Sadam, plants that have existed as far back as the dinosaur era. Along the way, visitors may visit and study historical sites as Krung Ching was once a base for pro-communist terrorists.
