Vajiralongkorn Dam
Vajiralongkorn Dam, formerly Khao Laem Dam, is a rockfill dam on the Khwae Noi River in Nong Lu, Sangkhla Buri District, Kanchanaburi Province, western Thailand. Operated by the Electricity Generating Authority of Thailand (EGAT), it was constructed between 1979 and 1984 for hydroelectric power generation, irrigation and flood control. The dam creates a large reservoir surrounded by forested mountains and is a notable viewpoint and engineering attraction near the Myanmar border.
