Khao Sok National Park is in Surat Thani Province, Thailand. Its area is 739 km², and it includes the 165 square kilometer Cheow Lan Lake contained by the Ratchaprapha Dam. The park is the largest area of virgin forest in southern Thailand and is a remnant of rain forest which is older and more diverse than the Amazon rainforest.
Cheow Lan Lake or Rajjaprabha Dam Reservoir is in Khao Sok National Park in Surat Thani Province, Thailand. It is an 185-square-kilometre (71 sq mi) artificial lake, inaugurated in 1987 with the construction of Rajjaprabha Dam by the Electricity Generating Authority of Thailand (EGAT) as a source of electricity. Rajjaprabha Dam, meaning 'light of the kingdom', got its name in May 1987 from the king at the opening ceremony on the king's 60th birthday. Before that day it was called the "Cheow Lan Project". It was designed as a multi-purpose project for power generation, flood control, irrigation, and fishery. In 1982, the Electricity Generating Authority of Thailand (EGAT) started construction of the dam by diverting the Klong Saeng River. It took about one year to completely. To flood this large area, 385 families of Ban Cheow Lan village were resettled. Rubber and other farming opportunities such as poultry, fruit orchards, vegetable farming, and reservoir fisheries were introduced together with the needed training programs and credit facilities to sustain farmers' incomes.
Nakhon Si Thammarat is one of the southern provinces (changwat) of Thailand, on the western shore of the Gulf of Thailand. Neighboring provinces are (from south clockwise) Songkhla, Phatthalung, Trang, Krabi, and Surat Thani. The name of the province derives from its Pali–Sanskrit name Nagara Sri Dhammaraja (City of the Sacred Dharma King), which in Thai pronunciation becomes Nakhon Si Thammarat.
Het 739 vierkante km grote nationale park van Khao Sok bevindt zich in de zuidelijke provincie “Surat Thani”. Het grote meer, Cheow Lan lake, dat ongeveer een vijfde van de oppervlakte voor zich neemt en achter de grote dam “Ratchaprapha” ligt is een pareltje om te bezoeken. De natuur in het park maakt deel uit van een prachtig regenwoud met een enorme diversiteit aan fauna en flora.
Het hele project rond de dam en stuwmeer werd in het begin van de jaren 80 op poten gezet door de lokale overheid en nutsdiensten. Een feestelijke opening werd voorzien in mei van 1987 onder het goedkeurende oog van de toenmalige koning van Thailand. Het project bracht nieuwe technologieen, economische en agrarische groei van de regio met zich mee.
Langs de westkust van de golf van Thailand ligt de provincie Nakhon Si Thammarat. Samen met de provincies: Songkhla, Phatthalung, Trang, Krabi en Surat Thani vormt deze de meest zuidelijke regio van Thailand. De naam is afkomstig uit de oude taal “Pali-Sanskrit” wat betekent: stad van de heilige Dharma Koning.
