Highlights
While Phang Nga is known for its islands and dramatic landscapes, few visitors venture inland to explore its spiritual heart. This full-day tour from Khao Lak reveals another side of southern Thailand with serene temples, peaceful monks, and timeless traditions.
Journey into countryside to visit little-known but culturally rich Buddhist temples. These sacred spaces are part of everyday life for local communities, yet remain far off the tourist path. At each stop, learn about temple architecture, local customs, and the role these sites play in village life.
Some temples are nestled among hills or forests, others house underground chambers or striking statues, each with unique stories. Local Thai lunch included during the day, offering moment to relax and reflect before continuing cultural exploration.
Perfect for travelers curious about Thai beliefs, history, and daily life beyond the beaches.
Itinerary
Wat Rat Uppatham (Wat Bang Riang)
2 hoursAdmission Ticket IncludedYour guide will meet you in the hotel in the morning and together you will set off to Phang Nga province to explore the spiritual side of Phang Nga. You will discover three exceptional temples and will experience a day filled with culture, religion, myths and legends. Located high on a mountain is Bang Rieng Temple boasting a beautiful, golden Buddha image that rises above the trees. The largest temple in the province, it commands breathtaking views over the surrounding forest and mountains. The temple consists of three parts in different architectural styles and is rumoured to contain a relic of the Lord Buddha.Dragon Cave Temple (praya nakarach cave temple)
2 hoursAdmission Ticket IncludedAnother impressive place of worship is the Dragon Cave Temple. It is located within a limestone cave amid a collection of stalagmites and stalactites. Enter into the temple via the many stone steps and discover countless small shrines and images of Buddha in all shapes and sizes. According to legend, the temple has healing powers and the monks residing in the temple have become masters in concocting herbal medication for the villagers living near the temple. The serene atmosphere makes it a popular place for meditation and reflection.Suwan Khuha Temple
2 hoursAdmission Ticket IncludedAlso located in a cave is Wat Suwan Khuha, one of the oldest temples in the province. Inside, you will be dazzled by a 15-metre-long golden, reclining Buddha surrounded by other religious statues and relics. Monks, and the cave’s resident cats, can often be seen next to the reclining Buddha – the monks meditating and the cats sleeping! Outside the temple, watch out for the dozens of mischievous macaque monkeys roaming around. Lunch is included at a local restaurant. The order that you visit the temples may vary and will be decided by the guide on the day. At the end of the temple exploration, you will return to Khao Lak and to your hotel.
