Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We visited the land split whilst visiting other attractions in the area. Nice to visit if passing as the other attractions are close by, on the same road but I certainly wouldn’t go out of my way to visit this. A bit disappointed to be honest. The entrance into the site has a counter/ drinks front which you will be offered a fresh cold drink before you leave. As there is no charge into the site, an honesty box or contribution box is set here. It’s up to the individual if they wish to leave a donation.
Fresh juice was very nice as was the gentleman that served the drinks. We left the equivalent to a few pounds £s as we felt that had this have been in the uk, there probably would have been an admission fee of at least £5 each!

I read about how a farmer’s land had “split” and so he had to move but how he opened it up as a tourist place to view the phenomenon.
Now I was expecting a relatively small split that didn’t really go far but I admit my incorrect assumptions. This is quite a hole - almost a small canyon, in fact you can walk down to the bottom and walk around it. I’d say it’s 50ft deep in places.
That’s it, simple as that. The lovely lady give you little snacks to try and some really good (and healthy?!) Roselle juice and you make a donation. We donated 40 bahts (£1) as it was a nice relaxed experience

We had a quick visit to the Land Split, that appeared as recently as in 2008 after an earthquake. Well, it's a land split - you can walk around/in it, takes about 15 minutes, and that's it...
It's free of charge, there's a drinks stall collecting donations from visitors.

No charge for visiting but donations accepted. This farmer turned entrepreneur when the farm he owned split about 20 meters wide and 10 meters deep during earthquakes in 2008/2011. Since much of his land is now unfarmable, he in his entrepreneurship turned a disaster into a tourist attraction. 20 minutes will all it take to walk the few paths. It’s ok but truthfully it’s forgettable.

Nothing special to see, land split said everything and is a 15 minutes walking into the eart. Nice landscape but I think the best thing is the little place outside that offer you a really nice juice for a donation. Also must try pumpkin chips that are really nice.

This was an interesting place to visit for an hour or so. You can walk around the site and see the split as well as the produce the farmer is growing.
It is done by donation and the farmer very kindly allows you to try some of his Roselle juice along with other products he makes or grows on the farm such as banana chips and tamarind.

It's okay we climbed up to the top and then down into the little split area. The only thing the place is known for is a local earthquake that split part of the area open next to a creek. It's a local curiosity that's it.

We stopped by here randomly. To go see the land split is free. So we stopped by and saw it. It was cool but nothing amazing.
When we got back to where we parked our motorbikes a guy came out and gave us some free juice. He then gave us crackers and jelly, wine, potatoes, and more juice. This was all for free. We obviously tipped about one hundred baht and also bought some jelly for 50 baht.
What a great place. It's down a road off of 1094. I recommend everyone to go see this place. This is what Thailand is all about. Great people great hospitality.

Very interesting split in the Earth. You can take a tour that includes this short hike. A little climbing required, but not to bad for both young and old people.

Friendly farmer has a small stand to offer you juice before/after you walk through the split. It's an interesting geographical spot and worth taking the short drive from Pai to check it out.

Do the dogs, in particular the puppy and it’s mother, have rabies/were they vaccinated? I visited a week ago and pet the puppy, and now am worried the mother’s saliva could have been on its back. Please let me know! Thank you!

To be infected by Rabies your skin will need to be punctured by an infected animal. In sure you'll be just fine.
