Wat Kajonrangsan, Phuket

Another interesting landmark of Phuket is Wat Kajonrangsan. Locals usually call it Wat Kajon, a shorter form of the name. It is an architectural masterpiece: a fantastic mix of architectural styles can be discerned, which makes it an unusual Buddhist temple. One of the town's unique Roman-style buildings is represented by the main edifice of the Wat Kajonrangsan, so it is another intriguing place to visit.
