This temple is easy to find with the 4170 road, in the South West of Koh Samui. When ' we arrive at the gate of the Elephants, turn left coming from Thong Krut and we're going after the small road to the sea. The temple is located in the village of Taling Ngam. It carries the name of Wat Kiri Wong Karam, which means "Temple mountain", symbolic name in Thailand. When you arrive, it is visible from a distance with its large gazebo covered with a roof with 3 levels of polychrome tiles and its outgrowths anti demon! This Pavilion is certainly a work by artist, by the decorations that furnish him and his great naja as a railing. The statue of the monk Loung Por Ruam, native of Taling Nam, who is the founding in 1900, is located east side of the Pavilion. The body mummified monk, is situated in a sarcophagus, sheltered in the small Pavilion located on the left on entering. This lovely carved wooden Pavilion, is framed by two elephants and must climb the steps to get to the prayer hall. This Pavilion is surrounded by the bougainvillea and flowers, which give it a very 'romantic' appearance. The other buildings are intended for host of the novice monks, for their learning. The founding monk, who was born here, went to his religious upbringing in Burma where they practice the Theravada Buddhism. Then, returning to his country, he founded this temple in 1900. After his death in 1966, his body was embalmed and the miracle product, with an exceptional conservation of the body since that time.View original -

To find this temple, when you are on the road 4170 to the North of the island, turn left "Elephant gate". You can't miss the door of elephants. Then, continue straight for about 600 to 800 m and on the right we see the entered the temple. At the end of the road, it is the sea, with a beautiful beach where you can make the snokeling. A few restaurants and nice bars. In this temple, there is also a monk mummified, the well-known Loung Por Ruam. Visitors can admire the monk who is kept inside a cage of glass, sitting in the same position since 1976. This is to be done if you're in the area for the side based, peaceful and then swimming.View original

Very Nice temple, far from the crowded places. The local sea shore is the best we experienced in Koo Samui.

Храм как храм, только нет толп туристов. Интересно было посмотреть на мумифицированного монаха. Common Thai temple, you just will not see crowds of tourist here. Point of interest here is mummified monk.

In this temple there are multiple buildings some excellently maintained other decaying probably earlier than current ones. The position puts him happily in a rather reserved in the middle of the forest and very close to the beach. There are also numerous other artifacts dedicated to missing persons.View original
