    Absolutely beautiful, would not recommend for first time foreigners. Unless you're Buddhist and know the culture, maybe try The Big Buddha...

    Beautiful temple that is very well maintained. There is also a night market twice a week on the temple grounds with a variety of food stalls.

    We have a night market on Tuesday and Friday and it closes @10 pm. You can buy good stuff from clothes to accessories and can enjoy Thai food.

    Couldnt go inside the temple, nothing much to see/do there. Phuket offers other, better places ... but if you already stay in Karon might be worth a visit.

    Beautiful temple structure maintained very well. Should visit it during the day to see it against the backdrop of the mountains and also at night to see how well lit the structure is. The two completely different views make it all the more charming. Do try and visit when the monks are in attendance so that you may seek their blessings.

    A peaceful temple. I recommend climbing to the last story and meditate facing the view. There is a very calming atmosphere here when we visited.

    Worth a visit. Absolutely beautiful

  • 4/5 Nick B. 4 years ago on Google
    Temple grounds well kept and wardens controlling those who haven't dressed appropriately or try to bring alcohol in. Twice weekly market on the grounds is worth a visit. A pleasant and friendly place.

  • 3/5 Edwin M. 2 years ago on Google
    This Wat is okay, it’s peaceful. Fine to visit if you’re passing by but not worth it to make the trip just for the Wat.

  • 5/5 Smart S. 2 years ago on Google
    Wow, what a moving experience. Well worth the drive to see everything

  • 5/5 Ashu R. 4 years ago on Google
    Beautiful place, but double check the timings for the market.
