The Khao Phra Viharn National Park will be temporarily opened for tourists from April 10 to 18, National Park, Wildlife and Plant Conservation Department director-general Jatuporn Burutpath said yesterday.
The department agreed to open the park's Mor E Daeng cliff and Noen Nub Dao areas for tourists during the Songkran holidays after Si Sa Ket governor Raphi Phongbupakit filed a request for the park to be opened. The park has been closed for six months over security concerns after conflicts erupted between Thailand and Cambodia over the Preah Vihear temple being listed as a World Heritage Site. Paramilitary officials would ensure security for the tourists, who are only allowed to visit designated areas.
