Wat Taphong Nok is a small temple to the east of Rayong (on the way to the boats for Kho Samet) with a big sitting Buddha. The Wat is one of the quieter temples in Rayong and apart from the big Buddha, there isn’t much there to see. The Viharn was closed, which is why it was probably so quiet when we visited.

It was actually nice to be able to visit without battling the crowds you get at some of the more popular Wats. There is something about the stillness and quiet of places like this that adds something to the experience and lets you focus on your thoughts. All in all, rather a nice visit.
