ciao Stefania non molto, giusto il tempo di fare delle foto. Considera che la visita al Wat PHra Yai faceva parte di un'escursione di una giornata che prevedeva il china Buddha il pranzo il giro sugli elefanti, la visita alla cascata e l'off road in jeep.

this buddha statue is easy to find you can see it from far when you're on the road of North Part of island

Hey Yea there are taxis outside the temple itself and just ask for it to be on the meter you will probably pay about 250 baht on the meter to Chaweng beach!

Not that I seen

Depends on the severity of your illness. There is about 60 steps, a little more than half way up there is a platform. However the steps are not steeper than regular steps I know of. BR Hans Christian

We went there in the morning (around 10 am) hired a taxi to first visit the big Buddha and then the Wat Plai Laem. At this time there was other tourist but it was not crawling with them. One thing to remember is that the big Buddha is a stop on almost all the sightseeing tours, thus we wanted to be there before they came. The monks was there as well, but only a few (you could pay them to get a blessing). BR Hans Christian

The only restriction is clothing as a mark of respect, woman must have there shoulders covered , men can't wear singlets, Always remove your shoes

Hi there, it will probably take about an hour to get there and will cost about $10-20 AUS for a return trip. Get them to wait there for you but you can haggle and get the best price. ENJOY I think it's a wonderful place.
