Whether it's because of their spiritual significance, beautiful design or rich history, temples often feature on the itineraries of many travelers. Wat Khao Tao is a well-known religious site you can't miss.

You'll soon see why this Nong Kae place of worship is a hit with travelers. If you're looking for other things to see here, Khao Takiab Temple, Suan Son Pradipat Beach, and Vana Nava Hua Hin Water Park are in the area as well. They won't take you very long to reach from Wat Khao Tao.

Thai Views | Wat Khao Takiap: So what’s in the pose when it comes to the many postures of Buddha? Well there are no coincidences, that’s for sure. Along one of the many beaches of Hua Hin, Thailand, sits a tiny peninsula that houses Wat Khao Takiab. Like most temples, a statue of Buddha is displayed in some shape or form. Here the statue is one of a standing Buddha with the palms of both hands upright and facing outwards, called “Repelling the Oceans”. One common meaning of this posture is the belief that on a visit to India, Buddha used the power of meditation to repel a wall of water that was unleashed by a hermit in hopes to cause a flood. There is also a second meaning “Preventing the Relative from Fighting”. Situated along the coastline of Hua Hin, I would say the former meaning to be more fitting and as I mentioned, no coincidences and hopefully no flooding to come.
