Hin Sahm Wahn (หินสามวาฬ)

Thai. Three Whales Rocks’. Name of a group of three, bare, elongated, rocks in Beung Kahn, that are surrounded by green forest and —especially when seen from above— are reminiscent of a pod of whales, hence the name. They are part of a mountain called Phu Singh, i.e. Lion Mountain’. Since the summits of these rocks are rounded and no balustrades have been put in order to maintain their natural beauty, only a small number of visitors a time are allowed to walk on the pinnacles, whilst some dotted lines painted in yellow indicate how close to the rounded edge one can go safely before it becomes a slippery slope.
