Wat Thammikaram Worawihan, Buddhist temple on Khao Chong Krajok hill in Prachuap Khiri Khan, Thailand.

The temple complex includes a prayer hall, stupa, large bell, and Buddha statue, positioned at 245 meters above sea level with views over the bay.

The temple has maintained its position as a spiritual center for local Buddhist practitioners while serving as a landmark visible throughout Prachuap Khiri Khan.

Monks conduct daily ceremonies and prayers within the temple grounds, maintaining traditional Buddhist practices and religious education for the community.

Visitors need to climb 418 steps to reach the temple entrance, and should bring water as there are no refreshment facilities at the summit.

A large population of macaque monkeys inhabits the temple grounds, leading locals to refer to this religious site as the Monkey Temple.
