Interesting places on Koh Samui, for example, the pagoda of the Laem Sor temple, the Magic Garden of Buddha, a crocodile farm and other objects, can be visited by anyone who decides to thoroughly explore this Thai island.
Unusual sights of Koh Samui
- Big Buddha Statue: This monument is a 12-meter figure of a deity sitting in a lotus position at the temple of Wat Phra Yai. You can get closer to the gilded statue by the stairs leading to it with 60 steps (you need to go barefoot).
- Overlap Stone: is not only a huge stone placed on the cliff near the cliff (a concrete bridge is laid to it), but also an impromptu observation deck (the southeastern part of the island is clearly visible from here).
- Hin Lad waterfall: is the most beautiful natural attraction of the island (2 km away from the city of Nathon), where tourists will be led by a well-groomed trail running through thickets of bushes and flowers. Once next to the three-level Khin Lad, everyone will see a stream falling from an 80-meter height, and, if desired, bathe in a clean lake.
