Thung Non Son flower field in Phitsanulok to open soon

TUESDAY, OCTOBER 01, 2024

Thung Non Son flower field in Phitsanulok’s Thung Salaeng Luang National Park is expected to be opened to visitors in early October, the Thung Non Son Tourism Club said on Monday.

The national-park staff, a tourism club and porters in Noen Maprang district have surveyed the readiness of the nature trail and camping area to welcome tourists. The flower field was closed to allow natural resources to recover. 

Club president Booncherd Khamkaew said the survey was done as many tourists have made inquiries about the opening date. He affirmed that many flower species have begun to bloom, and expected the flower field to be opened early this month.

Thung Non Son is a lush 10-square-kilometre flower field with savannah grassland features in the midst of more than 50 kinds of strange, rare herbaceous plants that pop up only from October to December.

Visitors can camp in tents and wake up to a beautiful morning bathed in sun rays and sometimes fog in the colourful flower field.
