“A transparent glass skywalk over Vajiralongkorn Dam offering panoramic reservoir views, stunning flower gardens, fountains, and water curtains illuminated by vibrant evening lights for thrills.”

Khao Laem Skywalk is located within the grounds of the Vajiralongkorn Dam, formerly known as "Khao Laem Dam," a significant rockfill dam in Thailand built on the Khwae Noi River. Surrounded by a complex network of mountains and a large reservoir, the area boasts stunning scenery year-round. This skywalk was developed as a new landmark in Thong Pha Phum district, blending natural scenic views with modern design. Tourists can walk on a transparent glass bridge extending above the garden area below, enjoying panoramic views of the reservoir, mountains, and the Vajiralongkorn Dam. The best times to visit are during the cool morning and evening hours when the light is beautiful for photography.

The skywalk itself is a raised glass walkway, approximately 34 meters long and 8 meters high. It utilizes multi-layered tempered laminated safety glass, designed for weight support and safety. While those afraid of height_s might feel a little nervous looking down, this is a key attraction that has made the site quickly popular. The view of the transparent glass floor against the backdrop of mountains and water has become a favorite photo spot for tourists visiting Kanchanaburi, especially during the winter months when the misty, cool air enhances the romantic atmosphere and beauty of the area. At the end of the bridge, there is a "waterfall curtain," another important highlight of Khao Laem Skywalk. Water flows from the top into the pool below, adding freshness and creating a distinctive feature of the area. In the evening, decorative lights and colored lights are turned on around the skywalk and the waterfall curtain, creating a distinctly different atmosphere from daytime. It's perfect for strolling, relaxing, taking photos, and watching the sunset over the Vajiralongkorn Dam reservoir. In addition, the surrounding area has been landscaped with a relaxation garden, activity areas, seating areas, and spaces for tourists and families to fully enjoy time amidst nature.

Near the skywalk, there are also restaurants and cafes for tourists, such as Ruen Khao Laem Restaurant and Khun Saichon Cafe, which offer beautiful views of the reservoir and mountain range. This makes the area more than just a photo spot; it's a place where you can spend several hours relaxing. Many tourists like to visit this area along with nearby attractions in Thong Pha Phum district, such as Hin Dad Hot Springs, Pilok Mine, and Neun Chang Suek, making Khao Laem Skywalk a key check-in point on the western tourist route of Kanchanaburi province.

For safety reasons, The Vajiralongkorn Dam has established guidelines for visitors, such as wearing shoes or shoe covers provided by staff before walking on the glass walkway. There are also limits on the number of users at each time to control weight and ensure tourist safety. Furthermore, visitors are requested not to bring large luggage onto the bridge and to closely supervise young children during their visit. With its beautiful scenery, easy access, and accessibility both day and night, Khao Laem Skywalk has become a popular landmark in Kanchanaburi, continuously attracting both Thai and international tourists.
