Thungyai is the heart of the western forest complex, which is comprised of 17 forest regions, situated in western Thailand along the Tranao Sri Mountain Range, near the Mayanmar border. It is called "western forest complex" because its boundaries extend through 5 provinces--Tak, Kampaengpet, Uthaitani, Supanburi and Kanchanaburi—and collectively protect 11.7 million Rais (approximately 4.4 million Acres) of forest. This is the largest and most important forest tract remaining in South East Asia with an intact ecology and a watershed that provides drinking water to thousands of Thai people. In 1 square metre of Thungyai forest, there are more than 5,000 species of bacteria. View more pictures of Thailands National Parks at http://teakdoor.com
