Sight seeing

Big Buddha is a must for tourists and we took our friends up there. The views are wonderful and the construction of this 45 meter Buddha is amazing to see. The construction started a few years ago and we have watched it develop of the years. Its sits on top of the mountain with 360deg views of Phuket. The whole construction has been done on donations.

Rob tried his hand at the big 'gong', if you rub the curved metal it starts to vibrate and hum. Rob got a good drone out of it.



While looking at Big Buddha from the side I noticed a man in its ear! I have zoomed in and lightened the photo so you can see the 'bug' in Buddha ear!
The workman are busy inside the statue so I gather thats why he was up there.
