Kasetsart University Lopburi campus is located in Tambon Phaniat, Khok Samrong district.
Wat Khao Wong Phra Chan is a nearby temple located at the highest mountain in Lopburi Province, just south of Khoksamrong. It is 5 km from the main road between Lopburi and Khoksamrong (a motorcycle taxi usually waits at the main road to take visitors for a slightly overpriced fee). The temple is at the foot of the mountain, which can be climbed via a tree-shaded staircase. At the bottom of the mountain is an interesting and unusual museum featuring a wide collection of religious amulets and ornaments, as well as photos, paintings and sculptures. The temple provides a complimentary vegetarian meal (donations recommended) for visitors.
Khoksamrong town has little in the way of tourist attractions, but is a pleasant place to spend a couple of hours. It has quite a few temples, a large and interesting market, along with an evening market on Thursdays by the coach station. Some of Lopburi's finest sunflower fields are on the outskirts of Khoksamrong, however private transport is needed to access them.
