Na Bua Som Jai is located in Sai Ngam Subdistrict, Sai Ngam District, Kamphaeng Phet Province. It started as an old rice field with low yields and was converted into a large lotus pond with over 50 lotus species.

Mr. Narit Niyom, or Ton, 32, the owner, said the name Na Bua Som Jai comes from his mother’s name. The family initially sold lotus plants online. Visitors admired the scenery and suggested adding a café and restaurant, so the owner added these facilities, designing spaces suitable for photography.
