Your day will start with a visit to the most important of the 29 buddhist temples of Phuket is Wat Chalong or officially Wat Chaiyathararam, located in the Chalong Subdistrict, Mueang Phuket District. Built during the 19th century, Wat Chalong was constructed and housed two reputable monks: Luang Cho Chuang and Luang Pho Chaem. They both tended to the wounded during the rebellion against the Chinese tin miners. The temple also served as a haven for those injured and ill and has become famous ever since. Later continue to the Sri Burapha Cashew Nuts Factory, which was established in 1943, offers insight into how this successful island crop is processed. Here you will learn how cashews are harvested, cracked open, and processed for commercial purpose. Following the tour, you can sample various flavors and purchase some of these fragrant and tasty nuts. Last but not the least, be pampered with a little R and R with your choice of a personal 90-minute Thai massage (no oil) or a foot massage by a professional local Thai masseuse at a well-known establishment.
