The park's distinguishing feature is its unusual rock formations around which religious shrines have been constructed. Some formations also feature prehistoric rock paintings. The park was established by the Fine Arts Department of Thailand in 1991.[1] GeographyPhu Phra Bat is located in the western zone of the Phu Phan Mountains between Udon Thani and Nong Khai, at a distance of about {{convert|65|km}} from each city. The park's area is {{convert|1200|acre|km2}}[1] and is entirely within the Phu Phra Bat Buabok Forest Park. Rock formationsThe unusual rock formations in the park include spires, massive boulders and balanced rocks and form the backdrop for the prehistoric art and religious shrines created there.[2] The geological origins of these rocks are thought to be from under-sea erosion that occurred fifteen million years ago.[3] Prehistoric artMythologyPhu Phra Bat's rock formations are the setting for a local legend about a king, his daughter and her suitor. The park's most striking rock formation, Hor Nang Usa, is where the overprotective king forced his beautiful daughter to live. Despite her confinement, she was able to get a message out to her suitor prince and the two were married in defiance of her father.[3] Religious shrinesThe park's most significant shrine is Wat Phra Putthabaht Bua Bok, where a Lao-style chedi covers a chamber housing a sandstone Buddha footprint. The shrine is a pilgrimage site with an annual festival held in March.[2][3] {{clear}}References1. ^1 {{cite web | title = Phu Phra Bat Historical Park | url = http://www.tourismthailand.org/See-and-Do/Sights-and-Attractions-Detail/Phu-Phra-Bat-Historical-Park--3514 | publisher = Tourism Authority of Thailand | accessdate = 24 March 2013 | deadurl = yes | archiveurl = https://archive.is/20130416011017/http://www.tourismthailand.org/See-and-Do/Sights-and-Attractions-Detail/Phu-Phra-Bat-Historical-Park--3514 | archivedate = 16 April 2013 | df = }} {{Commons category|Phu Phra Bat}}2. ^1 {{cite book | last1 = Williams | first1 = China | last2 = Beales | first2 = Mark | last3 =Bewer | first3 = Tim | title = Lonely Planet Thailand | edition = 14th | publisher = Lonely Planet Publications |date=February 2012 | pages = 460 | isbn = 978-1-74179-714-5 }} 3. ^1 2 3 {{cite book | last1 = Gray | first1 = Paul | last2 = Ridout | first2 = Lucy | title = Thailand - The Rough Guide | edition = 2nd | publisher = Rough Guides Limited | year= 1995 | pages = 378 | isbn = 1-85828-140-7 }} 4 : Historical parks of Thailand|Phu Phan Mountains|Tourist attractions in Udon Thani Province|Buddhist temples in Udon Thani Province |
