Wat or temple Kaew is located in the heart of Krabi town. His full name sounds like Koukoravas. Of course, he is not as big as tiger Cave temple and impressive high rise with lots of steps, but this is a good option for rainy nasty day.

The Thais call them Great Naka (Naked) that has enough power to be driven away from the Holy Buddhist site of evil spirits, but has no right to be inside the temple at the altar.

Passing the stairs, bound on the sides long scaly bodies of the Nagas, you will see a bright white complex with blue, like the sky, the roofs of Wat Kaew. At the temple atmosphere is extremely peaceful atmosphere, here not often found a large crowd of people.

The interior of the temple is characterized by the brightness and magnificence that are rarely found in other regions of Thailand. Golden Buddha statue rests here at sky-colored walls with red ceiling and many Windows, through which the room is illuminated by sunlight.

On the temple site, there are many different animals, people bring them in here, if a creature is wounded or not enough money to take care of him. So Wat Kaew live not only cats, dogs and chickens, and peacocks!
