Visiting Chaiyaphum to Appreciate Siam Tulips in Full Bloom (16/6/2015) Visiting Chaiyaphum to Appreciate Siam Tulips in Full Bloom (16/6/2015) The arrival of the rains turns Chaiyaphum province in the Northeast into an amazing place to observe the exceptional beauty and natural wonder of \"Siam tulips in full bloom. Locally known as \"dok krachiao, the Siam tulip is a pinkish-purple wildflower grown in abundance at Pa Hin Ngam National Park in Thep Sathit district. The botanical name is Curcuma and its flower is butterfly-like. This plant is in the same family as ginger and galingale, which are among the most popular Thai herbs. Since Siam tulips are in bloom en masse once a year in the early part of the rainy season from June to August, Chaiyaphum province holds a flower festival during this season each year to provide an opportunity for all visitors to see magnificent Siam tulip fields in a natural setting. The opening of the Siam Tulip Festival of Chaiyaphum this year took place on 13 June, presided over by the Chaiyaphum Governor. The festival, which has become a major cultural event of Chaiyaphum, will run through the end of August at Pa Hin Ngam National Park and Sai Thong National Park. The province has facilitated traffic flows for visitors to the festival. A tram service has also been arranged for visitors to travel in certain areas to appreciate the flowers. Moreover, local products, under the \"One Tambon, One product, or \"OTOP, program from all districts of Chaiyaphum have also put on sale there. Because of its popularity, the Siam tulip has become a symbol of Chaiyaphum and, in particular, the Pa Hin Ngam National Park. It is said that people standing in a Siam Tulip field would be as happy as if they were standing in heaven. Visitors can enjoy hiking and getting close to the pristine nature surrounding them. Other activities that they may join during the festival include a photo contest, a caravan of cars, and mountain biking. Apart from a bazaar of local products, there are also cultural shows. Literally \"the site of victory, Chaiyaphum is 342 kilometers northeast of Bangkok and is rich in hills and rock formations, as well as wondrous flora and fauna. The Pa Hin Ngam National Park is located on a mountain with cool weather all year round. Visitors to this national park are recommended to stop at the edge of the park, about 800 meters above sea level. This area is known by local people as \"sut phaen din, or \"the edge of the earth, a scenic point where an excellent view of the province can be found. The edge has numerous rocks of different shapes, found on a sandstones plateau that faces strong winds and rain. As a result, the rocks have turned into picturesque shapes and forms. The rainy season is the best time to visit the Pa Hin Ngam National Park to appreciate Siam Tulips in full bloom. The Siam Tulip Festival also offers good opportunities for tourists seeking new eco-tourist sites in Thailand and who wish to observe local peoples way of life. 1/10/2021 Page 1 กรมประชาสัมพันธ์.
