Open the appWat Doi Thepnimit
Buddhist temple · Patong, Phuket
Temple on the heights of Patong with a large white chedi guarded by seven-headed nagas and views over the Andaman Sea.
Wat Doi Thepnimit is perched on the heights of Patong. Its large white chedi is guarded by seven-headed nagas and the view opens onto the Andaman Sea. Much less crowded than the island's major temples, it offers a moment of calm above the town. For those with a scooter or taxi looking for a peaceful viewpoint.
Our local tip
Wear covering clothes; the climb is steep, use a scooter or taxi rather than walking in the heat.
