Buddha's View & Kayak in the Emerald Spring Water

Overview
Escape the city and immerse yourself in the natural beauty and cultural treasures of Pak Chong. The day begins with a visit to the Big White Buddha Temple, where you can challenge yourself with a climb to the Buddha statue while enjoying panoramic views of Khao Yai. For those seeking a more relaxed visit, there’s also a chance to enjoy the temple’s wildlife without climbing the staircase.
