Wat Phra Thong: Legend of the Half-Buried Gold Buddha Statue
★4.9(252)
Skip the crowded coastal spots for this quiet temple featuring a half-buried gold Buddha statue you aren't allowed to dig up. Legend says anyone who tries gets cursed, so just take the photo instead. Spend 30 minutes wandering the small museum and colorful grounds. For the best vibe, book the private Phuket tour that bundles this with the giant water lilies nearby—it handles the logistics so you can focus on the weird history.
