Tham Luang Cave

Tham Luang Nang Non, also known as Tham Luang or Tham Yai, is a karstic cave system in the Tham Luang–Khun Nam Nang Non Forest Park, near the village of Ban Chong in Pong Pha subdistrict, in northern Thailand. It lies beneath Doi Nang Non, a mountain range on the border with Myanmar.

Initially just known to locals, Tham Luang Cave gained to international fame during a significant rescue mission on July 2, 2018. The cave was brought to international prominence when twelve members of a junior association football team and their assistant coach were found deep inside the cave. They had become trapped due to monsoonal flooding on June 23. A rescue effort succeeded in bringing them out safely by July 10. Two Thai rescue divers died as a result of the rescue.
