A good atmosphere conveys the whole culture of Thailand. It is always beautiful and has a good view. Right in the jungle, you are sitting and around you the fresh air of Thailand and the trees, beauty!
It was built straight out of granite.
It's nice to arrive in the morning so quietly.
I'M WARNING YOU!!! THERE ARE A LOT OF ARROGANT MONKEYS WHO JUST JUMP, AND IF THEY DON'T GIVE WHAT THEY ASK FOR, THEY BITE IN BURSTS. IF YOU ARE WITH CHILDREN, I DO NOT RECOMMEND IT, I JUMP STRAIGHT INTO STROLLERS.
SHE JUMPED ON HER MOTHER AND SNATCHED THE PHONE AWAY. THE ONLY DRAWBACK OF THE MONKEY!!!
The Big Buddha is impressive in its size. It offers a wonderful view of Phuket Island.
There are a lot of monkeys here, but they are not recommended to feed or pet them, they can scratch or even bite. Keep your things with you.
We arrived in the evening, there were a lot of tourists. Before visiting, study the rules of conduct and dress code.
The temple grounds are very beautiful and you can make a wish.
For the second decade, the author has been observing the construction of this temple.
Ever since when it was a whole quest to get to it, when instead of a road there was a direction, and instead of a navigator there was a tourist paper map.
In recent years, the road has been overgrown with related businesses, a temple parking lot, a requirement for women to cover their shoulders and legs below the knees, a main staircase and observation decks, and a nominal hour of work until six in the evening.
For the year 2024, unfortunately, due to a landslide that descended from the slope of the temple, which claimed human lives, the temple was closed until the trial.
Let's hope that the authorities will force the developer to return to the agreed project, and the temple will be opened.
So far, you can only climb up to the makeshift observation deck to the temple.
The author highly recommends that you go up to the temple (and down) on foot, and the most prepared ones should run.
An indescribable impression awaits you.
PS: if you are visited by the idea of celebrating the New Year on the observation deck, be prepared for the fact that this glorious idea will be visited by more than one hundred people. You will not be alone at the temple, however, the view of the night city illuminated by the flashes of fireworks is worth it.
PS2: if you still believe in "how you meet NG, you will spend it" - do not believe it.
The author met the year 2020 on the observation deck of the specified temple, covid began a few months later, and the borders were closed for several years.
