Lod Caves and Highway 1095

Lod Caves and Highway 1095, Thailand – 2003. The highway is between Chiang Mai and Mae Hong Son is a spectacular drive through the mountains. There were lots of small farming communities (mostly rice) and lots of jungle. We visited the Mok Fa Water Falls and The Lod Caves which are north of Mae Hong Son on Highway 1095 and then several Kilometres drive from the highway.

There were a number of farming areas along the road through the mountains - mostly rice.

More rice paddies. The haze is high humidity.

They sell fish food at the main gate to the caves so these fish are VERY well fed
