## Visit Big Buddha Temple

Activities

* * *

* * *

#### Resting high on its own islet, this large golden seated Buddha watches over the island of Koh Samui and is one of the area’s most visited attractions.

The Big Buddha was built quite recently in 1972, but has quickly become one of the island’s most famous sights. Wat Phra Yai, as the locals call it, is the central location for Buddhist prayers on the island. Although it is a religious site, tourists are always welcome.

A special time to visit the Big Buddha is during the morning, just as the sun rises and the locals come to give their daily offerings. Cross the short causeway to the statue and view the offerings of colorful flowers and fruit. The morning is also the only time when the local monks perform their chants and prayers, an unforgettable experience. 

During the day, food stalls and small shops are set up to provide snacks and souvenirs. The statue can get busy on holy days, so be prepared for crowds. Admire the statue from below before heading up the staircase to reach the base of the 40-foot (12-meter) high statue.

At night the Big Buddha statue takes on another shade of gold as it is lit from below. The golden statue shines brightly and can be seen from miles away. Visiting in the evening might also allow you to avoid some of the crowds during the day. 

Throughout the year the Big Buddha statue is the site for many Buddhist festivals and is descended upon by hundreds of worshippers from across the island. 

You’ll find the Big Buddha on the northern end of Koh Samui, just to the east of Bang Rak Beach, and only two miles (three kilometers) north of the airport. The statue is a religious site and as such visitors are encouraged to cover their shoulders and wear long pants when visiting.
