①Grandfather Stone & Grandmother Stone
Located in the south of Lamai Beach, there are two strange rocks. Because their shapes resemble the reproductive organs of men and women, they are respected by Thais as grandfather and grandmother stones. According to legend, on a small island on the other side of Koh Samui, a pair of grandparents had gone to Koh Samui to propose marriage for their children and grandchildren, but unfortunately they encountered a huge wave and were seriously injured. They were still thinking of their grandchildren and prayed to heaven in the midst of the crisis , Hoping to achieve the grandson's hope, eventually turned into two huge stones, so that they can always guard their grandson.

It is like Guanyin in the South China Sea in Koh Samui; it is also the most famous temple on Koh Samui. It was built in 1972. The big Buddha in the temple is 12 meters high. It has a contemplative shape and its whole body is golden. Because of its huge size, visitors who arrive or leave at the airport can notice him.
Tips:
- Don't dress up when visiting the temple.
- Tourists need to take off their shoes under the steps if they want to go up and watch the Buddha.
③Nabang Waterfall
The waterfall is located in the central area of Koh Samui, a few kilometers deep in the jungle to the north of No. 4196. You can apply for a day tour group or drive there by yourself. The entire waterfall is divided into two levels. There is a natural pool at the bottom, where you can play and swim. Of course, you can dive if you are brave enough. The water splashed by the waterfall is very dreamy under the refracted sunlight.
