Temples at Koh Chang

Thailand People are very religious.
Therefore, the main attraction of any place in Thailand is the Temple.
Religious events are held every day in all Buddhist temples, local residents bring offerings and gifts.
The population of the island at all times actively donates funds for the construction of
Buddhist temples, and it is these temples that constitute the religious heritage of Koh Chang.
There are seven Buddhist temples on the island. Almost every large fishing village
has a Wat
built for the religious needs of the community.
Wat Salak Phet
Wat Klong Prao
The temple is located in the very centre of Klong Prao Beach, tourists have long been accustomed to here. Monks live here and services are held. If you are interested in talking to the monks or ask for a seisin thread on your hand, with the deepest desire - you need to come to the temple before 10-30am. Afterwards, Buddha's servants cannot talk to worldly people. All major celebrations such as Buddha day or Loy Krathong take place in this temple.
Wat Salak Phet
This is a Temple built on the east side.
Monks also live here, but seeing them happens less often. Wat was built by the whole world, for almost 20 years. But the temple turned out - feast for the eyes!
Bright, sparkling in the sun, with carved figures in the courtyard.
Also, please, visit to a small museum located exactly across the street from the temple.
We strongly recommend the museum, although it is tiny, but the only one dedicated to the history of Koh Chang.
Chinese Temple in Klong Son Village
The most revered, San Cha Por is a Chinese temple in which,
according to legend, the Dragon - Spirit of Chang Island lives.
From early in the morning, locals come here with offerings for the Spirit.
Fishermen come to ask for a catch, farmers - good weather.
In addition to the Temples, there are many other authentic attractions on the island, for example, the houses of the spirits. These are small structures that look like a small temple. They can be seen all over the island in a wide variety of designs and sizes.
According to legends, on every, even a small piece of land, there is a spirit that protects this territory. Therefore, in order to live a quiet life, the spirit needs to bring regular offerings.

View Point on road to Long Beach
One of the most beautiful place on Koh Chang.
Panoramic views of fishing villages, beaches and neighbouring islands await you. Due to the remoteness of this site from the island civilisation,
it is always quiet and peaceful here.

Koh Chang Waterfalls
This is another natural attraction of Koh Chang. The waterfalls are especially beautiful during the green season, when they are filled with mountain water. Waterfalls are incredible strength and power. And also, this is an opportunity to cool off on a hot day. We especially recommend visiting the two main waterfalls of the island.
Klong Plu
A place that everyone knows. Located on Klong Prao Beach, one kilometre from the main road. To get to the waterfall you need to catch a songtew from your hotel, tell the driver “Klong Plu Waterfall” and you will be taken directly to the place.
The Natural Park entrance ticket price now is 200 baht.
Than Mayom
The second largest waterfall in Koh Chang is Tan Mayom. The place is famous for the fact that once this waterfall was visited by King Rama 5, beloved by the Thailand people.
One of the stones still has a memorable inscription made before his arrival. The ticket also costs 200 baht (one ticket to National Park is valid for both falls on the same day).
