Wat Khiri Wongkaram is a hilltop Buddhist temple on Koh Samui, known for sweeping views, richly decorated temple spaces, and striking statue/chedi silhouettes against the palms and sea haze. Best light is early morning for crisp detail and late-afternoon for warm, backlit angles with fewer crowds. Free entry in general; confirm local dress rules (shoulders/knees covered). Parking is roadside/temple lots—arrive before midday to avoid heat.
