"Wat Chalong, also known as Chalong Temple, was constructed in the early 19th century. While its official name is Wat Chaiyathararam, it may not be prominently displayed on road signs. This temple, the largest in Phuket, attracts the highest number of visitors."

"My favorite temple I visited on Phuket. The most important of the 29 buddhist temples of Phuket is Wat Chalong or formally Wat Chaiyathararam. I recommend visiting on weekdays to avoid crowds. "
