Wat Chalong in Phuket's Chalong District is delicated to two highly venerable monks, Luang Pho Chaem and Luang Pho Chuang, who were famous for their work in herbal medicine and tending to the ill. During the Phuket tin miners’ rebellion of 1876, they mobilized aid for the injured on both sides. They also mediated in the rebellion, bringing the warring parties together to resolve their dispute. Statues honouring them stand in the sermon hall (viharn) of Wat Chalong.
