Wat Tham Yai Prik & Yellow Buddha:
In the interior of the island between Tham Phang beach and the old town is Wat Tham Yai Prik Buddhist temple and meditation center.

A stairway flanked by the mythological Naga serpent leads up to the ornate temple building. From here you will have great views of Koh Si Chang island, the surrounding islands and the Gulf of Thailand. A little higher up the hill is a very large golden colored image of the Buddha. The seated image overlooks the small town and the sea.

Chinese temple:
Just North of town and Tha Lang pier where the ferry arrives is a Chinese temple known as the Chao Pho Khao Yai Shrine, or “Shrine of the Father Spirit of the Great Mountain”. The shrine dedicated to the spirit is housed in one of the many caves.

Going back many centuries, the shrine is believed to have been founded by Chinese traders passing the island by boat. During Chinese New Year the shrine is visited by thousands of pilgrims from across Asia.

King Chulalongkorn’s Summer Palace:
About halfway down Koh Si Chang’s East coast is Chudhadhuj Palace, built by King Chulalongkorn around 1890 as the summer residence for the Royal Family.

When the island was briefly occupied by the French in 1893, the palace was deserted. The main building Vimanmek Mansion which is completely build of teak wood was dismantled and rebuild at Dusit Palace in Bangkok. Several structures remain including the beautifully restored green Ruen Mai Rim Talay building and the wooden Atsadang Bridge, which was the pier where the King’s boat landed.
