🌅 Wat Plai Laem, Samui — Peaceful, beautiful, and full of spiritual power

One of the must-see destinations when visiting Koh Samui is Wat Plai Laem, also known as Wat Laem Suwannaram, located on the island's eastern coast. The atmosphere is tranquil, with cool sea breezes and mesmerizing sunset views.

✨ The highlight here is the large, thousand-handed Guanyin statue, which stands tall in the middle of a pond, surrounded by a bridge and a traditional Thai wooden pavilion, symbolizing compassion and protection from all directions. Next to it is the large, smiling, contented Phra Sangkachai, a symbol of wealth and good fortune.

⛩️ The architecture blends Thai and Chinese styles perfectly, with vibrant colors and intricate details, making it perfect for both daytime and evening photography.

📸 Photography enthusiasts are guaranteed to capture stunning images, from the wooden bridge, to the sea view, and the majestic Buddha statue.

🧘♀️ If you need to recharge, meditate in the wooden pavilion by the pond, or take a slow walk around the temple, you'll experience true serenity.
