This is the hidden gem of Kelantan and Malaysia. It is the biggest sitting Buddha in South East Asia and it is located kilometers away from Kota Bahru, the capital of Islamic state of Kelantan. It is hard to believe that there are 3 beautiful and amazing Buddhist temples in Kelantan itself. They are the Chinese Beijing Mosque, the Sleeping Buddha at Wat Polithivan and the Sitting Buddha at Phra Buddha Bharameedharm Chamruslok Temple.
