Wat Tham Suea, which literally means tiger cave
temple, is located in the Khiriwong Valley amidst lush forests and
mountains with large trees over a hundred years old approximately 9
kilometers northeast of Krabi Town. Aside from being the site of a
meditation center, the compound is also a place of archaeological and
historical interest as excavations have uncovered stone tools, pottery
remains and Buddha footprint crafting molds. In addition, a cave in the
compound has what appears to be tiger paw prints in the stone.
