In the morning about 8:30 a.m. you will get picked up from your hotel. Our guide will welcome you right at the lobby. Your first spot is the Dragon Cave Temple, an impressive limestone cave that features local herbal medicine (to lower blood cholesterol) made by the residential monks. Over countless steps you go up into a mountain while passing different statues of Buddha. The Indian influence of Hinduism is visible and the statue of the healer Aslath could be visited. The second temple is a combination of three different temple styles – Thai, Chinese and Jedi – and is called Bang Rieng Pagoda Temple. It is a beautiful hilltop temple that features a huge seated golden Buddha image and amazing Thai temple architecture. After receiving of few insight into the Buddhism, you enjoy a delicious thai lunch with a fantastic view over the famous limestone rocks of Phang Nga and mangrove forest. Last but not least you spend time at the Manisii Maha Tat Temple that is unmissable with a huge black statue of the monk Por Than Klai and a beautiful main temple building. Por Than Klai is one of the most famous monks of his generation (1876-1970), because whatever he predicted turned out to be true.
