Lan Du Dao Doi Phu Kha National Park is a premier viewpoint in Doi Phu Ka National Park, Nan, known for its exceptionally clear skies and minimal light pollution. Located at high elevation, visitors can admire countless stars, planets, and the Milky Way.

The deck is specially designed for astronomy enthusiasts, with seating areas and open spaces for unobstructed views of the night sky. Visitors can enjoy tranquil mountain air, panoramic horizons, and the natural beauty of Northern Thailand.
