The 10 Best Sacred & Religious Sites in Phuket, Thailand

May 19, 2021 Etsuko Causey

Thailand’s largest island is an international magnet for beach lovers and serious divers, who enthusiastically submerge themselves in the Andaman Sea. Blue lagoons and salmon sunsets make for a dream-like atmosphere, and indeed, a vacation here can feel a bit surreal. Watersports are the most popular activities, though once you’ve had enough sun there’s still plenty to explore at the island’s aquariums, gardens, and Buddhist temples.

You can explore many highlights in Phuket just only 6 hours. Visit the most revered and visited temple in Phuket as Chalong Temple, the most important and revered landmarks on the island as Phuket's Big Buddha, take a photo of baby elephant, honey and cashew nut factory, beautiful panoramic view at Kata Viewpoint and have a lunch at local restaurant.

Chaithararam Temple (Wat Chalong)

Reviewed By Wonga2Wonga

Great place to visit, did so twice. Photographer's paradise. Visited late afternoon, yes there were people, it is an active temple - but never crowded. Guess could be so at peak tourist-coaches hours. Sat evening a night market / food stalls were being set up in the grounds just as the sun was setting. Practically all Buddhist temples visited (and those we just drove past) would be worth a visit if they existed in isolation, due to the elaborate sculptural art that they are so rich in, plus they can look a little samey, but "Wat Chalong" stands out, so if you only visit one on Phuket island, make sure this is it.

Big Buddha Phuket

Reviewed By Trail739116

It's hard to imagine just how big it is until you actually arrive and wow we were blown away by it's presence and the views from here are simply breathtaking. It's free entry which is always a plus plenty of food and drink options and a great chance to score some souvenirs definitely needs to be on everyone's itinary if your visiting Phuket.

We called in here while on a tour round Phuket with a driver and are glad we did, The reclining Buddha is so big and colourful, and despite being right next to the main road it was still nice and peaceful. Well worth a visit.

Wat Khao Rang Samakkhitham

Reviewed By sh00tingstarrs - Daegu, South Korea

We just got back from Phuket & spent our Christmas break there. I enjoyed this place more than The Big Buddha! I don’t understand why one review said this place is small & not worth it. WRONG! This temple is huge & totally worth the visit! For one, it was practically empty when we went, so we got to enjoy walking around without a huge crowd. This is one of the few less visited temples compared to the other more popular ones, so if you want to avoid a bigger crowd, go to this one! The intricate details on the structures & the “Gods” were impeccable!! Truly a spectacular & solemn place!

Wat Phra Thong

I greatly enjoyed my visit Wat Phra Thong. Its easy and fast to get there from any place in Phuket island and absolutely worth the trip. Take your time to read the legends about the Phra Thong statue.
