The area is home to several stunning and majestic temples, each with its unique architectural style and cultural significance. The convenience of ample parking options and free parking is an added bonus. Visitors are expected to dress appropriately, covering their legs and shoulders, out of respect for the religious customs and traditions. It's recommended to explore the different temples, including those that allow visitors to go inside, for a complete experience.

Very beautiful temple with a beautiful view with lot of flowering plants greenery. Neat and clean surrounding. You take lots of picture. Point to be noted do dress properly as it is a holy place. If you are hungry you can grab food , and the washroom is also near by which is also very hygiene. From this Temple it will take 20 to 25min by Scooty ride for Karon Beach which is very suitable for family. Very beautiful sunset,neat and clean beach .
