Wat Phrahon Laem Pho


You'll see the reclining Buddha in this temple the minute you arrive on Ko Yo, as it sits right next to the bridge linking the island to Songkhla. The colossal gold painted representation of Sakyamuni before he entered nirvana, is highly photogenic, and given the location, you'll have it almost entirely to yourself.
