Wat Suwan Khiri Wong (Wat Patong)

Culture & historyFree

Patong's main temple, surprisingly peaceful despite the proximity to the bustle of the resort, with vast grounds at the foot of the hills.

Wat Suwan Khiri Wong is Patong's main temple, set on vast grounds at the foot of the hills. It contrasts with the nearby beach resort's bustle through its peacefulness. Early in the morning, you can see the monks and the neighborhood's religious life. A good way to discover a more traditional side of Patong.

Our local tip

Shoulders and knees covered even if you're coming from the beach; ideal early in the morning to see the monks.
