No! ..... he would have been on his island tour, wish he had given us some feed back on how that went, it would have been useful info!

Koh Samui Temples

Where abouts on Koh Samui are these temples and how far from Lamai?

These 2 Buddhas are in the same complex on a hill at Laem Sor (not too far from Lamai) and about 1 mile away from the main Laem Sor Pagoda (photo is above, next to the ocean)

As you are driving down the side road towards Laem Sor Pagoda you need to take a right turning at a sign the says Chedi Top Hill, follow this road around to the left then up a steep hill and you are there.

Directions to Laem Sor Pagoda and information about it are here: http://www.samuitimes.com/laem-sor-pagoda/

Well worth a visit

No problem, rent a car and you will have plenty of time.

If you like temples, don't miss Wat Samret.

That looks like a good one too thanks!

Keeping the Thai Culture alive!

There was a one day school event yesterday, attended by just about every school I think. Held near the reservoir area in the south west of the island ....

Very well organized and choreographed.......
