I loved walking around this temple and seeing all the statuary, esp the guardians on the four corners. It's across the street from a phenomenal fruit smoothie shop and is also part of a larger temple complex connected to the village.

Khlong Prao is I believe the most beautiful beach in Ko Chang . So no doubt, a 5 star for this beach which is also the 2nd longest (after White Sand Beach) on Ko Chang. Why is it important? Because you can jog at sunrise and have a long relaxing and replenishing walk at sunset. There are plenty of restaurants along it as well as massages possibilities. We were there beginning on December and the beach was not overcrowded at all. One of the best beaches in Ko Chang if not the best.

We like to tour islands by motorbike and stopped in here to check out the pier. You will find little souvenir shops and snacks run by locals. Some diving gear, lots of sea food restaurants and little bars, along with some rooms and home stays. People are going about their lives here. Perhaps it is a bit different with international tourists but currently, it is a nice way to spend a lazy afternoon. Come and visit.
