I can't believe nosotros never constitute this house before. We stimulate got driven many times some the Cape Phromthep / Rawai Beach area, together with it's a corking role of Phuket to explore, only somehow nosotros missed this one... We constitute a corking viewpoint at a Buddhist Meditation centre/temple betwixt Rawai together with Phromthep, amongst a lovely stance of Cape Phromthep from the due south together with besides looking across the sea to Koh Kaew Yai, a small-scale isle amongst a golden Buddha statue on the shore. The H2O looked clear, together with nosotros spotted a small-scale soul beach unopen to the cape that y'all would likely necessitate a boat to reach.
We were next the dorsum route through the westward of Rawai together with saw a sign maxim (in Thai) "Samnagsong (or Samnaksong) Phromthep", which agency "Phromthep Meditation Centre". It's a dirt route together with I was a lilliputian concerned to stimulate got our car downwards in that place (it's non a fancy 4X4 y'all know), only it was fine, together with exclusively a duet of hundred meters long...we parked adjacent to what looks similar a small-scale temple. There is a Buddha statue facing out to sea together with a large elevated platform which I assume is for the aforementioned meditation.
The stance is gorgeous. We all sat for a spell on a small-scale wooden platform looking out at the ocean, at the due south side of Cape Phromthep together with the isle of Koh Kaew Yai, which is accessible yesteryear boat from Rawai. If you're inwards this area, effort to discovery it!

We went dorsum for a aspect at the stance amongst my mother, the stance is nevertheless great, together with all was fine until nosotros stopped to tell a lilliputian prayer inwards the temple. We dropped some coin inwards the donation box together with this elderly Monk (see photo) started talking to my married adult woman virtually all the people who had donated for helping to construct a novel edifice on the site. Indeed he had a volume amongst names of people who had donated. My married adult woman told him we'd already left a small-scale donation give thank y'all you really much, stimulate got a overnice day. As nosotros started to larn out he started ranting virtually if nosotros don't desire to donate G Baht nosotros tin p1ss off together with never come upward back..not really proficient take away for a monk, is it? My married adult woman says she has never heard a monk verbalise similar that before. I'd tell it is rather probable that nosotros volition follow his advice together with non return.
