One of its glorious pasts is the Old Town Phuket, which is full of Sino-Portuguese style buildings on both sides of the streets, making it a unique and distinctive feature. The Old Town Phuket is a must-visit place for everyone who travels to Phuket. It is a hub of delicious restaurants, great cafes, local markets, and street vendors.

Thailand happened somewhat as a last minute birthday present to myself in May. There’s something to be said about the ease of packing your bags and waltzing into a new country the next day, this all thanks to its inclusive visa-free policy! The last four pictures are taken in Phuket, where I landed and stayed for two days. I was then transported by boat to Phi Phi (first five images), where I spent the better part of my vacation. You couldn’t ask for a better place to reflect and practice gratitude as you leap into another year of life. Phi Phi is small, so I recommend you spend two or three days in Phuket or Bangkok first for a more wholesome Thai experience. But it’s not to be missed: the beaches and seabeds are picturesque and the nights feel like Ibiza. #happynewyear

Phuket Island has not only beaches, but also the colorful, dopamine-filled, dreamy Phuket Town.💒 Even though the Thai Songkran festival has passed, traveling to Phuket Island for a vacation is still a good choice. However, it is recommended to plan ahead for a visit to Phuket Town, this time I walked 30,000 steps in the old town streets, and I have summarized nine strategies that you can directly copy for your homework!🎏 - 🇹🇭Travel Tips: 👉 ❶Be sure to come over the weekend, Phuket Town has a weekend night market that is much more lively!🤹 ❷You can stay in Phuket Town for one night, but it is not recommended to stay too far away, as the surrounding area is quite remote and a short taxi ride can cost quite a bit of money🎫 ❸Must-visit buildings include: Rose Wall Café, Tiffany Blue Building, On Chun Hall, Thai Hua Museum, Ding Guang Hall... The town is not big, and you can find them just by walking around🕌 ❹If you go during the day, be sure to pay attention to sun protection. The old town is not like the beach, if you really can't stand it, just sit in a café and space out, and continue exploring around four or five in the afternoon☀️ ❺Don't go on a cloudy day, as the visual appeal of the colorful houses is much less. Photos taken on a sunny day will turn out great📸 ❻There are many Chinese restaurants on the streets, but if you don't miss Chinese food too much, you can skip it, as the taste is slightly inferior to that in China🍜 ❼Be sure to wait until dark to see the night view, especially the sunset. Standing on the streets of Phuket Town and taking pictures of the sunset, the atmosphere is very good🌇 ❽Phuket Town is not big, and walking around all day can be very tiring and hot. It is recommended to take it easy, drink coffee at Ma sj, and enjoy the night market as it gets dark☕️ ❾Phuket Town is close to the pier for Phi Phi Island, so if you are going out to sea to Phi Phi Island the next day, staying in town is a good choice🏨 📍

✨Thailand's tourism industry has always been doing particularly well, especially some famous tourist attractions. ✨Phuket is one of Thailand's signature destinations. If you come to Thailand, you must go to Phuket to experience the passion of a tropical island. ------------------------------------------ 🌸Travel guide: 1⃣️Boat ride: A must-do activity at the beach is taking a boat ride, and this place is no exception. What sets it apart is the extremely clear seawater and the warm hospitality of the locals. 2️⃣️Diving: If you can dive, you must go snorkeling once. There are sights in the sea that cannot be seen on land. 3️⃣️Night Market: It seems that Thai people especially like to visit night markets. The weekend night markets are particularly popular, with many local snacks. You must go and take a look. 📌Tip: ⏰Business hours: Open all day 💰Price information: Admission is free🆓, but entertainment projects require additional fees. 📍Location information: Phuket Island, Thailand

#wheretogo to live your Harry Potter fantasy when in Phuket, Thailand? Thailand is known for its people's creativity - they set trends when it comes to the latest cool hangout spots and ideas. Thankfully, this means hardcore Harry Potter fans might not need to travel to the UK for now, as Phuket is home to its own Hog's Head? Hog's Head Inn is famously known for being a historic (though disresputable) tavern in the Harry Potter series. Fans will know of its peculiar design, interesting drink concoctions, and spooky atmosphere. Located in Phuket Old Town, Hog's Head Pub Phuket enchants visitors with the famous slanted door, as well as decor that transports you into a Harry Potter book. While the food looks great, I recommend going for the mocktails (or alcohol). The non-alcoholic butter beer is a must-try - sweet with the right amount of gas for a little burp! The whole menu is priced affordably, and the staff were awesome. Even if you're not a Harry Potter fan, go down for a unique experience. PS live bands perform here after sunset! Address: 27 Yaowarad Rd, Talad Yai Muang Phuket 83000 Thailand #thailand #phuket #harrypotter

Sunshine, beaches, enchanting sunsets The summer of Phuket Island🌴 never stops. Summer is about heading to the islands. So go to Phuket and give yourself a Thai-style🇹🇭 vacation. 📸Some recommended photo check-in spots 🔸Amari Phuket: An invincible sea view lobby, with a view full of transparent jelly sea. Have an afternoon tea here, and the vacation atmosphere is maxed out 🔸Cliff Cafes: Several cliff cafes or restaurants are basically between Karon and Kata Beach. If you like the forest vibe, you can go to Laem Sai, and there's also the less popular Sentai Le Resort. Although it's a hotel, its restaurant is also on the cliff, with a great view and open to the public 🔸Phuket Old Town: On the east side of Phuket Island, about a 40min drive from the bustling central area of the three major beaches. But the colorful buildings here are very photogenic, and there are many unique shops. Although it's a bit far, it's worth a visit 🚗Transportation: It is recommended to rent a car for self-driving. Taxis on Phuket Island are expensive and not very convenient, as the attractions are relatively far apart, and some are even on the mountains, making it difficult to hail a cab. I rented a car in advance on 🐬, applied for an international driving permit translation (the little white book), and upon arrival, I simply picked up the car at the airport with the documents, which was very convenient ✨It is recommended to rent for a longer period, as you will stay on the island for many days anyway, and renting a car for the whole trip is cost-effective. The summer promotion offers longer rental periods with more discounts, with a minimum of 40% off 🅿️You can basically park anywhere on the side of the road in Phuket Island, but note: Do not park where there are red and white lines; You can only temporarily park where there are yellow and white lines, and the driver needs to stay in the car 🏠Accommodation If you are not very fond of the hustle and bustle and nightlife, it is not recommended to stay near Patong Beach. It is recommended to choose Karon or Kata Beach, or the quieter Nai Harn Beach. It's quieter there, and the water will be clearer and more beautiful.

Phuket Island (Thai: ภูเก็ต) is under the jurisdiction of Phuket Province of the Kingdom of Thailand, covering an area of 543 square kilometers. It is the largest island in Thailand and also the smallest province. In 2014, the island had a population of over 600,000. Phuket Island is located to the southwest of Thailand, above the southeastern waters of the Andaman Sea. It is an elongated island that is longer from north to south (the longest point being 48.7 kilometers) and narrower from east to west (the widest point being 21.3 kilometers). To the north, it is adjacent to the Phang Nga Province of mainland Thailand across the Pak Prah Strait, while on the east side, it faces Krabi Province across Phang Nga Bay. The west and south coasts are bordered by the Andaman Sea. Due to its location facing the Andaman Sea, Phuket Island's climate is greatly influenced by the maritime monsoon, with the first half of the year being hot and the latter half being rainy. Phuket Island, with its enchanting tropical scenery and rich tourism resources, is known as 'A Gem in the Andaman Sea.' It is also extremely rich in natural resources, earning it the nicknames 'Treasure Island' and 'Island of Gold and Silver.'
