2024 Phunphin Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in December)
Wat Khao Phra Anon, an ancient temple in Surat Thani
The ancient site of Wat Khao Phra Anon, formerly known as "Wat Khao Hua Lang," is an old temple in Surat Thani province (believed to have been built in the late Ayutthaya period).
We got to know this temple because a friend who works in Surat Thani took us to visit.
Inside the temple, there is an ancient ordination hall with 11 stucco Buddha images in the Mara Vichaya posture. Despite their simplicity, they are beautiful and give a very peaceful feeling.
Around the ordination hall, there are ancient boundary stones and an ancient stupa in the style of the Srivijaya Kingdom.
It is another place I would recommend for those who want to pay respects and pray in a peaceful atmosphere.
Travel: By private car.

MEET CAFE
☕️ MEET CAFE is a hidden gem near Surat Thani Airport with a minimalist style and a touch of European vibe.
This place serves as a café, restaurant, and accommodation. The café's tone is predominantly white with minimalist decor, complemented by green plants, creating a relaxing atmosphere. The menu offers a wide variety of food and drinks. Mae King has tried everything and found it all delicious, especially the mango smoothie and Australian beef steak, which are exceptionally tender and flavorful. Additionally, there are numerous coffee and beverage options. Café enthusiasts should not miss this place 😙😚😘.
For Tesla drivers, this café is the first in the province to offer charging stations, making it quite luxurious! ~ 🚗
