Wat Kaeo Korawaram, Buddhist temple in Pak Nam, Thailand.
Wat Kaeo Korawaram is a Buddhist temple perched on a hill overlooking Krabi, built with white and gold surfaces combined with traditional Thai architectural details. The main structure sits at the summit, surrounded by smaller buildings that organize the grounds into distinct zones.
The temple began as a spiritual center for Krabi and expanded over decades to meet the community's needs for a place of Buddhist worship. Its growth reflects how the religious life of the region developed.
The temple serves as a working place where monks carry out their daily practice and visitors experience Buddhism as a living tradition. The rhythm of worship shapes how the space feels throughout the day.
Visitors should cover shoulders and knees as a sign of respect in this active worship space. The temple can be reached by car in under 10 minutes from downtown Krabi.
The entrance features a monumental staircase flanked by naga sculptures that guide visitors upward toward the main building. This carefully planned route creates a sense of ascending toward something important.
