Prenovljeni Big Buddha izgleda res impresivno. Kdor želi, lahko položi svojo ploščo na steber s poljubnim napisom na notranji strani templja, kjer je še vedno nedokončan, ali pa obesi zvonček z napisom (predvsem za zaljubljene duše) ...
Lep izlet, dobra cesta do vrha in na koncu tudi lep razgled kot na vseh razglednih točkah na Phuketu ...

This was the view for our morning swim today. This is a very clean beach, but at times there can be some plastic in the sea. Very unfortunate. If you have the budget, this would be a great area to stay at in Phuket. It is quiet and relaxing. You are also not far from Kata beach which has more of a nightlife if you need it. #Beach
