The small city and province of Suphan Buri are both located in central Thailand, approximately 100kms north of Bangkok. Its main recreation spot, in the city at least, is the 'central park', Chaloem Phatthara Rachini Park, and the main feature of this park is a lookout tower. The park itself is worth a visit.
This tower in total is 123m high. It has multiple lookout decks, tourist items to purchase, telescopes to view with, guides—everything a visitor could desire. There are both lifts and stairs to the top. The choice, is yours. Parking, I did not see a specific parking area, but there is parking in the streets around the park. The interior of the main deck contains murals featuring King Naresuan the Great (the Siamese king who defeated a major Burmese invasion four centuries ago, in this region of Thailand). The tower is certainly worth a visit if you happen to be in the area.
The waymark was made at the Tower main entrance.
