About the National park

The national park is not small, and if you want to explore it thoroughly, it will take up a whole day.
Therefore, it is recommended to stay nearby and arrive early. In the route map, the routes from P3 to P2 and from P2 to P1 are both by boat.
The admission ticket includes a round-trip ticket from P3 to P2 and from P2 to P1, and additional boat rides are not possible, so please be aware of this.
There are food vendors and resting areas at P3 and St2. Other areas are simply hiking trails.

It is also worth noticing that there are many relaxing places near the park and local people often go to play in the nearby streams.
If I have the opportunity, I can share more information with you all.
