Wat Phothikyan Phutthaktham (Twin Dragon Temple)

Wat Phothikyan Phutthaktham, commonly known as the Twin Dragon Temple or Wat Balai, is a Thai Buddhist temple in Kampung Balai, Bachok District, Kelantan, Malaysia. Located about 25 kilometres southeast of Kota Bharu, it is notable for its pair of large dragon sculptures flanking the entrance, colourful Thai-style architecture, and large Buddha images. The temple serves the local Siamese community and is a distinctive cultural landmark in predominantly Malay Kelantan.

Visitors can expect a colourful Thai-style Buddhist temple compound set in a rural village environment. The entrance is flanked by two large intertwined dragon sculptures leading to ornate halls, chedis and large outdoor Buddha statues. The grounds are open and walkable with decorated prayer halls, murals and shrine areas. The atmosphere is quiet and devotional, with opportunities for sightseeing, photography of the architecture and sculptures, and observing local Buddhist practices.
