Why should you go there and how do you do it right?

Here, it's all about the rocks. The name means something like "house in the rock garden," and the rock formations scattered across the grounds, along with the surrounding garden plants, give the place its unique character. It's something completely different from a neat row of parking spaces on a level lawn – and that's precisely what makes it so appealing.

Things move at a leisurely pace here. This place is for camping, for relaxing and letting the day drift by, not for ticking off activities. It's located in Tambon Isan on the outskirts of Buriram, so you're close enough to town to stock up on supplies, but far enough out to enjoy peace and quiet in the evening. If you're looking for organized entertainment or a resort atmosphere, this isn't the place for you. But if you want to spend a night under the stars in a spot also used by locals, then this is the perfect place.

I would recommend the cooler months, roughly November to February. Camping in Buriram during the hot months or the rainy season is more of a challenge than a holiday.
