The air is fresh and well-ventilated. There is a hole leading through to the opposite part of the mountain. 9 species of bats live in the cave. Visitors can contact a guide at the entrance of the cave. It takes about an hour to walk through the hole. Behind Tham Phu Wai, there is aother small cave: Tham Thep Mali or Tham Phaya Nak, which is quite deep but naturally attractive with stalagmites and stalactites.
