Day 17 in Koh Samui takes us on a whirlwind cultural adventure! Our minivan tour whisks us to a treasure trove of iconic landmarks. We pay our respects at the awe-inspiring Big Buddha Temple and Wat Plai Laem. The breathtaking Lad Koh Viewing Point rewards us with stunning panoramas, and we indulge in a refreshing local treat - coconut ice cream with sweet potato, banana, and sticky rice! Nature's wonders unfold at Grandfather and Grandmother Rocks (Hin Ta Hin Yai), and we delve into the vibrant Koh Samui Chinatown. A visit to Wat Khunaram unveils the fascinating Mummified Monk. We learn about the island's agricultural heritage at a coconut plantation, completing our cultural immersion.
Our stomachs rumble after a busy morning, so we head to Aye Aye's Kitchen for a delicious Burmese feast! The owner, a kind soul from Northern California, welcomes us with open arms. We savor lemongrass chicken curry, fragrant biryani, and crispy samosas, along with a complimentary soup. Exhausted but exhilarated, we call it a day with a relaxing evening and in-room dining. Join us as we explore the rich tapestry of Koh Samui! #Thailand #KohSamui #CulturalAdventure #IconicLandmarks #LocalTreats #BurmeseFeast #TreasuredTreasures
