Pra That Cave was discovered by a local farmer who was chasing a deer when it followed it up the mountain. The cave was originally called Dusitmahima, but was renamed Pra That (also written Phra That). The cave has a number of stalagtites and stalagmites, the result of calcium deposits. Many of these take on usual formations resembling pillars, frogs, and so on.
Pra That Cave measures close to half a kilometer in length. It is open daily from 8:00 am to 4:00 pm.
