The village of Ban I-tong, seen from Noen Chang Suek
Pilok (Thai: ปิล็อก or ปิล๊อก,[a]pronounced[pi.lɔ́k]) is a subdistrict (tambon) in Thong Pha Phum District of Thailand's Kanchanaburi Province. Its main settlement, Ban I-tong (บ้านอีต่อง, [bâːnʔīː.tɔ̀ŋ]), is a remote village on the Myanmar border, and is surrounded by Thong Pha Phum National Park, which takes up most of the subdistrict's area. Pilok rose as a mining boomtown in the 1940s, when tin and tungsten mines were established in the area, but suffered greatly from the tin market crash of 1985, after which its mines ceased operation. The village has since seen revival as a tourist destination.
