Wat Khao Rang is located on the slope of the popular Khao Rang (Rang Hill). Visitors can see a large golden sitting Buddha; the first of its kind on the island and a spiritual centre for many worshippers. The temple gets busier during the weekends. It is common to see families come to “make merit” by donating fresh food and alms to monks, usually before 11:00 am. Walk around the temple to see incredible Thai art forms, including statues of Yommaraj (the Lord of Death) and giants from Thai myths, as well as traditional carvings on the temple’s doors and roofs. The temple is also famous for its founder Lung Pu Supa. Born more than 100 years ago, Supa is also known as the “Living Monk” because he lived through the reigns of five Thai kings of the Chakri dynasty, from King Rama V to the current King Rama IX.

Phra Nang Sang Temple is located in Thalang district. Rumoured to be approximately 500 years old, it is said to be the oldest temple on Phuket. It is claimed that the temple was built in honour of an innocent princess who was executed for a crime she did not commit. At her execution, she bled white blood, thus proving her innocence. For this reason the temple is also called Wat Leuat Khao, the Temple of the White Blood.

Phra Thong (Wat Pra Thong) is located near the Thalang District Office, north of Phuket. The main attraction is the half-buried golden Buddha image, which is said to be “untouchable” in that any person who has tried to dig it out has been cursed. Legend has it that a farmer boy tied his buffalo to an object that looked like a post in an open field, then fell ill and. He and his buffalo died not long afterwards. The father dreamed about this incident and went to check the post, which turned out to be the top part of a big buried Buddha sculpture. Many villagers came to help to dig it up but only managed to expose half of the statue. A monk on a pilgrimage spotted the holy sculpture and advised building a temple around the half-buried Buddha.
