Muak Lek district surprises many visitors with its own version of country and western culture. Dairy farming has been associated with the rolling hills of Muak Lek since Dutch and Danish aid agencies back in the 1960s started lending a hand with the establishment of a Thai dairy industry.
In the forested hills, an easy two hour drive from the center of Bangkok, one finds several resorts and a perfect setting for a weekend retreat even if one doesn't want to play cowboy or dairy farmer. The local river also has a small waterfall that is a very popular picnic destination.
