Tiger Cave Temple (Wat Tham Sua), Krabi

Tiger Cave Temple is located in Tambon Krabi Noi, Mueang Krabi District, approximately 5–9 km from the city.  Established in 1975 by Luang Pho Chamnian, who had a vision of a cave that looked like a tiger’s paw print and that tigers used to live in that area, hence the name ‘Tiger Cave’. 🏯 Highlights • Natural caves & Tiger paw prints: There are many caves, such as Tiger’s Hand Cave, Lod Cave, and a point where you can see tiger stripes on the rock walls. () • Challenging 1,237-step climbing route: Climb to the top of the mountain, over 600m high, for a 360° view of Krabi and the Andaman Sea.  • Replica of the Buddha’s Relic & Footprint: Located on the top of the mountain, at the viewpoint, and with a glass pagoda for worship.  • Chinese-style Guanyin Bodhisattva: Over 5m high, located in the temple below. Anyone who comes must go and pray. 🧗♂️ Feelings upon arrival • The walk up is quite tiring. Especially during hot weather – You should prepare water, snacks and rest along the way.  • When you reach the top, the view is stunning, you can see Krabi town, Ao Nang and the intricate limestone mountains – It feels like you have completed your mission (It takes 45-90 minutes, depending on your fitness)() • On a lucky day, you might see the sea of ​​fog during September-January (early morning) If you are looking for a tourist attraction that combines sacred things, meditation, challenges and spectacular views – Tiger Cave Temple is the answer. No matter how tired you are, I guarantee that every step you take will be impressive. 💪 #Get a discount without relying on luck
