Hello Steemit Friends,

Phuket is not only famous for its spectacular island life but what this town really offers also is a full experience from the art of living to cultural diversity.

Mixture Of The New Beginnings

When one mentions on most talked about topic on Phuket’s uniqueness , The Sino Portuguese Architectural influences should not be forgotten. I am here in Old Town where the history were marked upon the gem in the Mining Industry times. This attracted sailors to settle, mainly the Portuguese whom traded around the Malaga port. Soon to be locals, many hired local Chinese to build their houses. Soon the mixture between the art of the Sino-Portuguese was created.

The Old town is located in the middle of the island. Where shops and businesses are held mostly by locals and residences. It’s a good place to spend the day away from the touristy coast.

The Real Phuket Style

Thinking of dining around the Old Town ?, The most recommend one is Tu Kab Khao. Tasty local food right in the center of the Old Town with great services and delicious homemade Phuket style dishes.

It is well-known among the locals and some tourists to be the place to try when visited Phuket. So I decided to take my parents out for a lovely lunch.

Opens Everyday From 11 Am - 12 Am

Around this place: The Day can be spent mostly by visiting Chinese temples, local art galleries, second hand book stores, massage spas and other out-doorzy explorings.

If you ever you a chance to visit, don’t be hesitant to see this part of the town because it might not be covered in sand and stands coconut trees but the charm along with the coziness of this area makes it essential to wander through, so when you depart you know you didn’t just had a glimpse of this city but you have been to and seen The real Phuket.

When I was in Phuket there was so much to do everyday. I stayed in the beach area just a block away from the ocean and the scene was very vibrant. From tours, to shows, to festivals, to the crazy nightlife. Something you can only experience in Phuket.
Have a great week Suzana

I am glad you enjoyed Phuket !! Yes, there are a lot to do but also many tourist traps. You ought to be careful where you go and what kind of places to visit. Fortunately nowadays we have the internet to scan bad reviews.

I hope you have a wonderful time once you got the chance to visit !! :)
