context_page_description: Hup Pa Tat is a valley located in Uthai Thani Province in Thailand. There is an abundance of exotic plants, such as Arenga Pinnata. The plants expand wildly in the cordon of stalagmites and stalactites. During the visits, rare animals like elongated tortoises and pink dragon millipede might be found. The valley is located in Kao Huai Sok, one of the mountains in a limestone mountain range, comprising an area of about 48,000 square meters. A long time ago, this was an enormous cave until the ceiling collapsed. Major limestone blocks scattered on the floor of the valley confirm this theory. Surrounding by limestone mountains, the sunlight is restrained from reaching the ground during any time than midday. The place was discovered by a local monk in 1979. Later in 1984, the mountain has been blasted to make convenient access to the valley.
