Wat Thammikaram Worawihan (วัดเขาช่องกระจก) is a huge and beautiful Buddhist temple.

Even if Khao Chong Krajok is not so high, it offers stunning views on the surrounding flat landscape.

Walking up to the top of Khao Chong Krajok is popular tourist attraction.

Khao Chong Krajok is a small hill located on Prachuap Kiri Khan city beach. There are 396 stairs to the top.

On the way to the top of the mountain, many monkeys can be found. Local vendors sell food for monkeys.

Better be safe with monkeys as some males are really big.

This monkey is busy eating a banana so he will not try to snap anything.
