On Sunday we visited the old Political and Military School where the communists taught their doctrine. The Political and Military School consists of 31 identical buildings (in true communist fashion) which were labeled as places to sleep, a kitchen, a film developing studio, guard’s room, and many others. It was located in the creepy, moss-filled portion of the mountain. Right next door to the communist’s president’s house was the jail. I think my capitalist views got me in trouble:
We also visited a waterfall where the communists used hydropower to power a rice grinder.
The large rock crevice was used as a natural air raid shelter by the communists.
Phu Hin Rong Kla National Park is a beautiful part of Thailand with a rich history. I would advise anyone visiting this park to bring a car. All of the sites at the park are quite far apart, definitely not walking distance. There are no bikes, scooters, or cars to rent either. So if you arrive by bus you’ll be hitch-hiking with other tourists from site to site.
