Phuket Chinese Temple
 |
|
Just off the corner of Soi Phuthon and Thanon Ranong near to the Ranong bus terminal in Phuket Town stands the 200 year old temple of Put Jaw. Being the oldest Chinese Taoist temple in the whole of Phuket, it also stands as being one of the most spectacular. The temple was built and dedicated to the Kwum Im, the Goddess of Mercy.
The temple, or Wat as it is known, show the deft, intricate detailing of Buddhist temples, with gold leaf aplenty, Chinese lanterns and brightly colored wall-banners with ancient dragon motifs. While the surroundings give you an out-of-this-world experience, the undisturbed serenity and tranquil feeling that exudes from the resident monks is truly enlightening.

| Jui Tui, which is a large annex to the temple, is sat adjacent. Again, the building is a fantastic display of workmanship, although it was built a full century after Put Jaw, it is still visually sensational. Dedicated to Kiu Wong In, the Vegetarian God, it stands as the birthplace of the October Vegetarian Festival where devout Buddhists observe a 9 day ritual in order for good fortune to be bestowed upon them. Devotees or 'Ma Song', perform a series of merit-making tasks, such as a 10 day vegan diet, fire-walking over hot coals and climbing up blade-rung ladders in order to be spiritually cleansed by Chinese Gods. |

| Jui Tui also offers visitors the chance to go through the 'door of relief' – beyond which is the altar. For those who have a quizzical question requiring a yes or no answer, they throw two mango-shaped wooden pieces into the air and if they both land the same side up, the answer is 'no'. If they land on different sides, the answer is 'yes'. It is all too common to find yourself subliminally attracted to peace and sheer beauty of it all. Put Jaw Chinese Temple, Soi Phuthorn, Ranong Road, Phuket Town, Thailand. Opening Hours: 06:30 – 20:00 |
