- Chaithararam Temple (Wat Chalong) - Officially named Wat Chaiyathararam, Wat Chalong is the largest and most esteemed Buddhist temple in Phuket. Founded in the early 1800s, it pays tribute to the revered monks Luang Pho Chaem and Luang Pho Chuang, who were celebrated for their herbal medicine skills during the 1876 tin miners’ rebellion.
