Khaosod English One source

A mysterious green light, reminiscent of the aurora borealis, was documented over Phanoen Thung mountain in Kaeng Krachan National Park shortly after its seasonal reopening.

On November 1, 2026, officials at Kaeng Krachan National Park in Phetchaburi province reported a striking green glow appearing in the night sky above Phanoen Thung mountain. According to Khaosod English, the phenomenon occurred just as the park reopened to the public following a scheduled three-month closure for environmental recovery. Park authorities successfully captured photographic evidence of the unusual light, which many observers have compared to the northern lights. For travelers and residents, this event adds a layer of intrigue to the park's reopening, as Phanoen Thung is a popular destination for stargazing and nature photography. While the visual display has generated significant interest, the exact cause of the green illumination remains unconfirmed. Visitors planning trips to the area should note that while the park is now accessible, the atmospheric conditions or specific factors that led to this light display have not been officially explained by scientific authorities. Travelers are encouraged to monitor local park announcements for any further updates regarding this rare sighting. As of now, the event is being treated as a unique natural occurrence observed during the park's first night of operations for the new season.
