Geocache Description:

Rang Hill (Khao Rang) located in the middle of Phuket is popular for it scenic restaurants, temple and a new viewpoint bridge. Khao Rang is not very high but its located makes is fun to have a lunch or dinner break with a good bird view of what Phuket Town looks like from the top. 


Rang Hill used to be a fitness park, but obviously has lost its popularity… All year round, people climb up there to admire bird views of the southern part of the island: Chalong, Panwa and even the Big Buddha sitting on top of its own hill.


Khao Rang Hill

This place can be reached by bike/bicycle/car.

The view from Khao Rang Hill has always been pretty good with most visitors stopping half way up to eat at either Tunk Ka Cafe or Khao Rang Breeze Restaurant. Now a new viewing platform has opened extending out to the south of the hill over the trees offers a much better line of sight. On a clear day one can see pretty much all of Phuket Town, plus all the way across to Chalong Bay and the hills to the west including the Big Buddha.

There are three ways to reach the top of Rang Hill (plus a hidden one). One street, Soi Wachira, located just next to the well known Vachira Hospital leads to the very nice Wat Khao Rang (Kao Rang temple) and its large golden sitting Buddha. Another way but longest and most convoluted road called Hongyok Utis Road starts right passed the ‘Bangkok Hospital Phuket’. The third way is by a street called Soi Chimbi starts from Mae Luang road and passes by a small Thai Temple with its white Chedi on the right and side, and a not very well known Chinese temple on the left.
