If you're coming to Phuket you probably don't want to miss out on exploring and walking through the streets of old town Phuket. Some nice eateries, and interesting architecture. A couple very nice Chinese Temples. worth spending a couple of days in old town, for sure.

This Budhha Temple is a beautiful creation jointly by chinese and Europeans. Before visiting the temple, we first went to a separate area within the temple complex to meet the Monk and to seek his blessings. In this part of the building, people offer food items to the monks, cook food for them and seek blessings. Here there is a Budhha Idol, where 3 incense sticks are offered- one for Lord Budhha himself, 2nd for disciples of Budhha and 3rd for the Monks. There is a school in the Temple premises where teachers are mostly monks themselves. The residence of the Monk is also situated in the same premises. At the entrance to the main temple, there was a small structure called 'boundary' which is typically a symbol for such places and was exactly at the centre of the front part of the temple. And in all total 9 such structures were found around the Temple premises. The main Temple has a huge idol of Lord Budhha, where we prayed for peace and wellbeing by bowing down 3 times as per the ritual. Behind this temple, there is a huge conical structure called pagoda, where bones and ashes of Lord Budhha are preserved and there is no access for the public to the remains of the Lord. Felt satisfied after paying a visit to temple and after receiving blessings from the Monk

A small, colourful and peaceful Chinese Shrine. A tranquil pocket in Old Phuket Town good for a short meditation session to pay respect. Nice street passage to keep the noise of the bustling Old Town. Its definitely a nice spot to just to be in peace and take photos. No entrance fee, no smoking, and no shoes in the temple.
