Current destination check
This static temple route guide is paired with current destination, stay, and food-route checks for this place. Use the fallback links now; the panel refreshes when the current check is available.
Showing static guidance until the current check is available.
Use this first before you start collecting named temples. The route can break on heat, AQI, traffic, closures, or ceremony access long before the site list looks wrong.

| Main static risk | exact hours, closures, ceremonies, ticketing, crowd/review signals are unstable |
| Live signal candidates | weather/AQI / opening/closure / event/festival / transport/traffic / review-volume only as live catalog |
| Source strength | medium/needs validation |
These are the highest-signal sites promoted into the live /temples/ layer for this city.
These sites still matter to the route, but they stay inside the city page until live-check coverage or public demand gets stronger.
| Site | Priority | Area | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|---|
| Wat Maha That Wachiramongkol / Wat Bang Thong | Secondary | Ao Luek / north Krabi | Use as non-beach culture route; Tiger Cave needs heat/stairs warning. |
| Ao Nang Mosque | Support | Ao Nang | Use as non-beach culture route; Tiger Cave needs heat/stairs warning. |
| Wat Sai Thai | Support | Sai Thai / Ao Nang road | Use as non-beach culture route; Tiger Cave needs heat/stairs warning. |
This city packet depends on a mixed source stack. Use the official or heritage source first, then only add catalog or map layers when they improve the traveler decision.
| Source | Type | Evidence level | Used for sites |
|---|---|---|---|
| TAT Krabi | official | official city/province source | Ao Nang Mosque; Wat Kaew Korawaram; Wat Maha That Wachiramongkol / Wat Bang Thong; Wat Sai Thai; Wat Tham Suea / Tiger Cave Temple |
Temple pages should start with the most reliable identity or heritage source, not with review or map popularity.
| Rank | Source layer |
|---|---|
| 1 | Legal Buddhist identity: ONAB temple registry |
| 2 | Public religious-site fields: DRA Buddhist and non-Buddhist religious-site datasets |
| 3 | Ancient monument / ruin status: Fine Arts Department |
| 4 | Tourist-facing metadata: TAT and DASTA |
| 5 | Coordinates and local map tags: OpenStreetMap / Overpass |
| 6 | Images, aliases, and global IDs: Wikidata / Wikimedia Commons |
| 7 | Reviews and live opening status: commercial POI enrichment only when licensed |
Repeated temple names and mixed site types make name-only matching unsafe.
| Rule | Meaning |
|---|---|
| 1 | ONAB temple code exact match is canonical for Buddhist wat identity. |
| 2 | Thai name plus province plus district is a strong match. |
| 3 | Thai name plus coordinates within 250 meters is a strong geospatial match. |
| 4 | OSM, Wikidata, TAT, or Fine Arts records inside the same temple polygon are strong enrichment matches. |
| 5 | English name or romanization alone is weak because temple names repeat and transliterations vary. |
| 6 | Do not merge an active wat, abandoned wat, ancient ruin, shrine, and tourist attraction unless the source evidence agrees. |
