Wat Pho

A temple in Ban Tai known above all for its herbal steam room. The abbot started it in the early 2000s: herbs, lemongrass among them, are boiled in a wood-fired cauldron and the steam is piped into separate rooms for men and women. Massage is offered on site after the steam.

The sauna is across the road from the temple, about a hundred metres away. It opens at 1 pm and runs into the evening.

• The sauna costs about 120 baht
• Open from 1 pm until about 6:30–7 pm
• These are working temple grounds: dress modestly and wear a sarong in the steam room
