Wat Koh Sirey is an interesting Buddhist temple in Phuket with free entry and stunning panoramic views of Phuket Old Town and the surrounding southern coastal islands. The temple itself is not very large, fifteen minutes are enough to see everything. Inside, there is a large statue of a reclining Buddha. You can’t drive here, so you will have to walk up a winding path for about ten minutes. This place is quite quiet and not very crowded, so it’s not necessary to choose a specific time for a visit.
