the community is the location of Wat Chalok Lam, an old
temple in this village. Called Phra Buddha Mongkhon
Pathip, the presiding Buddha image at Wat Chalok Lam is
in the posture of subduing Mara. A wall inside the ubosot
(main chapel) features a mural illustrating the life of the
Buddha. Another wall features the history of Ko Pha-ngan
written for next generations to study and learn further.
Moreover, paintings of several masters on Ko Pha-ngan and
Ko Samui are also shown on the wall opposite the presiding
Buddha image. Moreover, images of well-known monks in
Surat Thani, as well as those of other respected monks,
are installed at the Khantikonuson pavilion. These
respected monks include Venerable Luang Pho Chan
Khantiko, Venerable Luang Pho Rob Ongsutharo, Venerable
Luang Pho Bun Khantiko, Venerable Luang Pu Thuat, and
the Most Venerable Phra Phutthachan To Phromrangsi.
