Travel Guide for Phuket Big Buddha

⛰【Attraction Guide】 📍Detailed address: Yot Sane 1 Mueang Phuket District, Phuket, Thailand 🚗Transportation Guide: 1⃣️Taking a taxi🚗, Grab is more likely to accept orders compared to Bolt, as Bolt is cheaper and drivers are generally reluctant to accept 2⃣️At the foot of the mountain, choose to ride an ATV all the way to the top where the Big Buddha is, and then ride the ATV back after visiting. Depending on your schedule, choose the rental duration accordingly. If you're not in a hurry, rent it for a longer period to enjoy the experience 3⃣️Walking, this requires a lot of physical strength. Walking on the main road might take half a day. They usually choose to climb the mountain path, which is steep and has a dangerous section⚠️I walked down the mountain and felt like my legs and butt were done for. Just before reaching the foot of the mountain, I met two European guys walking up, very admirable! 🕙Opening hours: Temple 8:00-19:30, viewing point open 24 hours, restaurant hours are 9:00-17:00 💰Ticket price: Free 🌟Highlights: 1⃣️The Big Buddha is really big, and can be seen from Karon Beach below, and it's even more spectacular up close. It is quite close to Karon Beach, down the mountain road, across the road is Karon Beach. 2⃣️The area around the Big Buddha is also a place for worship. Looking down from the other side, you can see Karon Beach, and further down is a temple. 3⃣️Next to the viewing platform, there is a restaurant🍴and along the way, there are shops for renting ATVs and even elephant riding activities. 4⃣️It takes about half an hour to visit the Phuket Big Buddha attraction, so if you plan to take a taxi back and forth, you can ask the driver to wait outside, they are willing to do so. 5⃣️Be prepared for sun protection, as there are not many shaded areas in the attraction, after all, it's all about the sea views from afar. 📌Little Tips: Know the English name of Phuket Big Buddha, when taking a taxi, the driver will confirm the address with you!
