   Wat Khlong Thom Museum  

This contains stone tools, bronze implements, metal coins, pottery shards, ceramic and stone decorative arts, and colored beads more than five-thousand years old dug from excavations in the area.  The museum is on the grounds of Klong Tom Temple in Tambon Klong Tom Tai, 1 kilometer distant from Klong Tom District office.

   Thung Teao Forest  

This is one of only a few lowland forests in Southern Thailand.  The nature trail begins about 800 meters before reaching the Kao Nor Ju Ji Park Office within the Restricted Hunting Area of Kao Pra-Bang Kram.  It passes through both secondary forest, now in the process of development and growth and primary forest containing very large, ancient trees.  The trail climbs into the limestone foothills, passing a pool of startling clarity and beauty.  After that it enters an area open and spacious before returning to the park office.  Many animals and plant species in the lowland forest are extremely rare, some are close to extinction.  Of particular note is the colorful Pitta Gurney bird, or nok taew laew tong dam in Thai, which was long thought wiped out but has recently been re-discovered living in Tung Tiao.
