Must-sees & Must-Dos in Ban Krut?
What to do and see in Ban Krut
The highlight of visiting Ban Krut, which also attracts many thai tourists, is the Wat Tang Sai temple, perched on a hill at the end of the beach and the large golden Buddha a little below. Its typical small market near the train station is also a place where it is nice to stroll and buy some food before taking the train.
