关于Phuket Big Buddha
Phuket's best-known landmark: a 45-metre white marble Buddha on Nakkerd Hill, seen from much of the south of the island. A winding road climbs to a free car park and terraces with wide views over Chalong Bay and the west coast. Entry is free and the site runs on donations; shoulders and knees should be covered. It reopened in March 2026 after a long closure and is open daily from 9 am to 6 pm.
