A big Buddha in Hua Hin

Big Buddha Khao Tao in Hua Hin, Thailand

Big Buddha, Reclining Buddha, Sitting Buddha, Standing Buddha, Buddha's everywhere. The real big ones many time on top of a mountain. You will actually find them all over Thailand. This Big Buddha is on top of a small hill / mountain called Khao Tao in Hua Hin. I made this photo in 2007 when visiting a good old friend in Hua Hin. And this photo proves that this photo and the photo in the previous posting were both made at Khao Tao, the turtle mountain. At the foot of the mountain is Wat Tham Khao Tao in a partly real & partly artificial cave. On top of the mountain is Big Buddha Khao Tao. And on the south side of the little mountain is a beautiful small beach called Sandy Beach.
