Hin Ta & Hin Yai @ Koh Samui

Tuesday, April 19, 2011

HIN TA - HIN YAI (Grandfather & Grandmother Rocks) is one of the most visited place of interest for tourists, rock formations which represent the male and female genital organs.

Their formation and their appearance were made famous by a local tale describing their origin and their existence on the island. The tale tells that the bodies of an old couple would have run aground in the bay after their boat sunk thus creating these weird rock shapes..
