1 review of Wat Ao Phrao

Beautiful temple

Excellent

On our visit to the still little explored and uncrowded island called Koh Kood in Thailand, we had the opportunity to discover amazing places hidden in the middle of nowhere. One such place is this recently built small temple called Wat Ao Phrao. The only road to get there goes along the southern coast to the beach of Ao Prhao. It's the island's most remote beach and on one of the hills before the beach, you'll find this temple surrounded by green near a small native village. In saying recently built I mean it was just being finished in 2011 when we visited. We could still take some pictures, which I uploaded.

As you can imagine, there's not much to be said about this temple because there's little information besides some photographs. You can't even find it on Google Earth. We were definitely the first Westerners to be able to show pictures of this small, but beautiful temple. We knew its name because of some websites, but with photographs of the area without finding any temple. So you know, if you have an urge to discover islands like Koh Kood, you have the opportunity to meet not only the beaches, but part of the religious architecture through temples like Wat Ao Phrao.
