Bangkok: The Thai cave where a youth football team was trapped for days has been re-opened to visitors, 15 months after the dramatic rescue effort that made headlines around the world.
At least 2000 visitors queued to get access to the Tham Luang cave to gain access on Friday, the Bangkok Post quoted officials of the Tham Luang Khun Nam Nang Non National Park near Chiang Rai as saying.

Only 20 people at a time were admitted to the cave entrance and the first chamber of cave complex.
The twelve boys aged 11 to 16 and their coach had visited the Tham Luang cave, Thailand's fourth-longest cave stretching over 10 kilometres, on June 23, 2018.
