One of the main attractions is the vast pink cosmos field spanning over 55 rai, known as the largest flower field in the Isan region. The blossoms stretch as far as the eye can see, perfect for stunning photos from any angle. Bring your best outfits to twirl alongside the flowers. The blooms last until the end of January 2026.

The place has a relaxing atmosphere, pleasant breezes, and is suitable for all ages. Visitors can also greet the first light of 2026 to bring good fortune, illuminating life just like the name of Thepsathit District, which means “Divine Abode.”
