Sramorakot ( The emerald lake )At the Prabangkram wildlife safety park, there is a green lake in the middle of forest where is the centre of many natural hot streams. It has pale blue-green water and has temperature about 30-50 degree. This is the reason to give it name ‘Sramorakot’ or ‘Emerald lake’ It is1.5-2 metres deep, 25 metres long and 20 metres wide.
After lunch we headed out into the jungle, it was about a 1.5 hour drive from where we were then a 1km walk to the Emerald Pool! Locally known as Sra Morakot or Sramorakot.
The name of the place was Khao nor Chu Che Lowland Evergreen Forest - the light was beautiful for photographing the greenery.
The water at the pool is really Emerald colour, it's caused by mineral build ups as it's natural spring water and it's carbonated!
It's very invigorating to swim in the pool, especially after the long walk.
The spring water comes naturally from up the hill.
You can really see the Emerald colour here.
After the 1km walk back it was a 10-15 minute drive the hot springs at Khao Pra-Bang Kram famous waterfall hot springs, the water is about 40-42 Celcius.
