Phuket's Big Buddha is one of the most important and revered landmarks on the island. I visited this enormous Buddha about 8 years ago and it was then under construction and last month i happen to be in Phuket to meet up with a couple friends of my and we decided we had to take a drive up this 6 km winding road to the top of this mountain to visualize this magnificent piece of art. This huge Buddha sits on top of the Nakkerd Hills between Chalong and Kata Beach it's 45 meters tall 25 meters across the base and can be seen from as far away as Phuket Town and Karon Beach.
The whole body of this Big Phuket Buddha was constructed with reinforced concrete, layered with beautiful Burmese white jade marble that gives a beautiful reflection with the sunlight bouncing of this beautiful Buddha statues.
Close up to this big Buddha itself, the atmosphere is very peaceful, the only sounds you hear are the tinkling of small bells with soft background dharma music peaceful feeling and tranquility.
