Magic
Hill is a small place where many people drive pass. It is located at
the 17th-18th kilometer marker on the highway number 2258 (Na Ngua- Sado
Phong) in Rim Si Muang Sub-district, Khao Kho District, Phetchabun
Province. The wonder of the Magic Hill is hard to explain to children as
the things used in the experiment can go upward against what eyes can
see. The most popular experiment is to stop the engine, park the car,
and shift the gear to neutral. The car will amazingly move upward on the
hill for around 10 meters. It is proved that this phenomena is resulted
from illusion. The height of the hill is lower than the hill ascent;
therefore, the car moves backwards because of the gravity of earth.
Direction: from Phetchabun
Province, take the highway number 21 (Phetchabun- Lom Sak) for
approximately 13 kilometers. At Na Ngua T-junction, turn left to the
highway number 2258. The road starts with the kilometer marker number 0
