Wat Khao Lang Viewpoint

Location : https://maps.app.goo.gl/StiGdrykJLzsehc98

Wat Khao Lang is 92 Km south of Chumphon town. Take Highway 41 for 90km where you need to take the U Turn just after the footbridge.

Take the first road on the left, immediately after the footbridge. The temple is 2 km down this road on the right. You will find the steps up to the viewpoint at the back of the temple buildings.

The steps up to the viewpoint are well made and most of the way under cover of trees.

On the way up you will come across this rock with a Buddha footprint.

Near this rock you will also find this golden stupa.

The steps finally lead you up to this viewing platform.

From the viewing platform you have nice view towards the east over the village of Khao Lang and in the distance you can just see the sea.

The view looking south.

On the platform have been built a Stupa and an image of a Monk.

Between the buildings you will find steps  that will take you up to a small cave.

Sadly when we visited the lights were not working so we only ventured a small way as the cave has a steep descent. So the following pictures have been found on the net.

The cave is about 50m long and about 10m in diameter. Also found it very hot within the cave.

This is the view looking back at Wat Khao Lang Viewpoint from the village.
