According to legend, a lightning strike destroyed the original temple. A jade Buddha was found among the rubble, which from then on represented a central sanctuary. Several temples claim ownership of it.

Elephant Camp

Highlight • Structure

This is animal cruelty. The elephants are chained and people can ride them. They show signs of stress and discomfort. Please do not support this!

Hah Lek Suspension Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

This suspension bridge completely disappeared during the last floods in November 2024. It is currently not possible to cross the river here. It was always a beautiful route. Whether a bridge will return here is not clear

Highlight • Religious Site

Meanwhile, the "Blue Temple" is no longer unknown and here are numerous visitors to be found, yet a wonderful alternative to the overcrowded white temple. In addition, for free!
