The cave is located at Three Hundred Peaks national park, Prachuap Khiri Khan province. This cave is the best known for the Kuha Karuhas pavilion. The pavilion was built at the end of the 19th century for the visit of King Chulalongkorn (Rama V).

Studio Gang Architects‘ design for the SOUTH POND PAVILION was inspired by the tortoise shell. It features pre-fabricated wooden planks that have been interconnected and milled to form the curving structural members. The top of the pavilion is covered in semi-transparent fiberglass pods, which let light filter in while still protecting those underneath. Yoga classes and other educational programs use the pavilion regularly. The pavilion is part of a larger redevelopment of the pond at the Lincoln Park Zoo designed by Studio Gang.

The pavilion is part of a larger redevelopment of the pond at the Lincoln Park Zoo designed by Studio Gang. Their project largely consisted of rehabilitating a dilapidated, 19th century urban park pond fed by city tap water into an exhibit on pond life. The depth of the pond was increased to improve oxygenation for aquatic life, and a wetland was engineered along the water’s edge with new plantings and drainage to encourage new wildlife and vegetation. A boardwalk made from recycled plastic now circles the pond and includes educational kiosks.

A pavilion which serves as little chapel called “Arc of Hoya Murciana” so known for the name of the place where it is located. Built in 1980, is one of the most significant milestones on the “Camino de la Virgen” (Virgin Path), so named for being, every year, the path of the “Virgen de los Remedios” pilgrimage, a religious celebration that is held in mid May in La Roda (Albacete, Spain), when the Virgin is moved from this town to their sanctuary in the neighboring town of Fuensanta, fulfilling an existing true tradition since 1592, according to documentary evidence.

-Español:
“Camino sagrado”.
Templete, denominado “Arco de Hoya Murciana”, así conocido por el nombre del paraje donde, a modo de pequeña capilla, se haya ubicado. Construído en 1980, es uno de los hitos del “Camino de la Virgen”, llamado así por transitar por él todos los años la Romería de la Virgen de los Remedios, festividad que se celebra a mediados de Mayo en La Roda, y en la que la Virgen se desplaza desde esa población, hasta su santuario en la vecina localidad de Fuensanta, cumpliendo así con una tradición de la que hay constancia documental desde el año 1592.
