The most popular temples on the island, and also the largest, the Guan Yin temple complex is set on a hill top, making it hard to miss when driving by. The temple is devoted to Guan Yin, the goddess of Mercy, which is the female representation of Buddha. More like a shrine than a temple, this is a great place to experience chines culture, and enjoy the beautiful architecture around the premises. Because of its popularity, it can get a bit crowded during the day. If you're staying at a Koh Phangan Resort, in the area, such as Anantara Rasananda Koh Phangan Villas, do check with staff what the best time to visit would be.
