Wat Chalong

Wat Chalong is known to be welcoming guests for decades and even centuries to their temple, so everyone interested can experience the daily life and interior of a Buddhist temple. Wat Chalong is only one of 29 Buddhist temples around Phuket island. At Wat Chalong you will see many locals come for their daily prayers, but you are also welcome to learn a thing or two about Buddhism, if you have an interest for that. Wat is the Thai word for Buddhist temples - which are among the most important symbols of Thailand. If you have an interest in the local culture, Buddhism or the architectural style in Southeast Asia, then pay a visit to Wat Chalong in Phuket. The temple is open every day from 7 AM to 5 PM.
