Located at the top of Nakkerd Hill and accessible from Chao Fa Tawan Tok Road close to Wat Chalong, the Buddha stands 45 m tall. Construction of Phuket's Big Buddha started in May 2002 and is known in Thai as Praputamingmongkolaeknakiri พระพุทธมิ่งมงคลเอกนาคคีรี. From the top of the hill you can see some great views of Phuket Island. For more photos please visit my Flickr Album and for more information visit the Big Buddha website.
