Coffin Cave

Mae Hong Son Province


Climb a steep hillside and rickety stairs to reach this sequence of three shallow caves, where you'll find ancient teak coffins carved from solid teak logs. The cave is located just past Pangmapha Hospital, about 2km west of Soppong. There's a ticket office, but it's not always staffed.
