Hello Steemians,
How are you doing today?
Let's start the week with a travel inspiration. As you know, I am traveling the world with my girlfriend since around 10 months now and I would like to share with you some of the wonderful places we have been visited so far. That's why I will be posting travel posts like this one under the series "LET’S TRAVEL TOGETHER". I hope you'll enjoy it 😃
...So let's travel ✈️
The province of Krabi in southern Thailand is very famous because of the wonderful beaches and islands, but it has much more to offer.
One of the nature wonder in this province is the Emerald Pool (Sa Morakot), a natural jacuzzi in the middle of a stunning jungle. A natural mountain spring fills the pool via two streams and it makes it a perfect place to relax, swim and enjoy nature.
We woke up very early in the morning and we drove with our motor scooter for about 2 hours from Ao Nang, which is about 70 Km away.
Our first stop was at the Hot Spring Waterfall (Namtok Ron), a Park with beautiful cascades of warm water with temperatures between 40-50 degrees Celsius. It paid off waking up very early. We arrived at the Hot Springs around 8:30 in the morning and we were completely alone… but for only some minutes, after one big bus loaded with tourists arrived 😂
In our time alone, we were able to take some pictures of this nature wonder completely empty:
And then after some minutes, it wasn't empty anymore 😂
OK, ok... Enough of photos! Let's enjoy this natural "hot-tub jacuzzi"
Oh man! It was really HOT 😜
After a couple of hours boiling in the hot waters we jumped back to our motor scooter and we drove about 8 kilometers more to the Emerald Pool (Sa Morakot).
The place was already crowded when we arrived, but since we got inside the Park, we knew it would be an amazing place.
Just right after the entrance we were welcome by this pretty landscape:
Right after this river, you'll find 2 paths to get to the Emerald Pool. One straight path of around 800 meters and one of 1,4 kilometers on a bridge through the jungle.
Which path did we take?
Yeap! you guessed right!
Of course the jungle one! ...And we just loved it 💚
Look at it for yourself:
And finally, we made it! We arrived at the famous **Emerald Pool **💚
Now we can understand why it is so famous amount tourists and locals.
It is really a magical place to be!
⚠️ By the way, you must be very careful! ...The rocks are very slippery! ⚠️
…I guess I’m brown enough 🙈, let’s get out of the sun for a while 😜
I hope you enjoyed this post as much as I enjoyed putting it together for you. If you haven't visit this place yet and you'll go one day to southern Thailand, you have to visit definitely this miracle of nature 😎

The path through the jungle was one of my favourite parts at that place. Expecially the part with the yellow water looked like on another planet :p
