Introduction to Phuket Town Attractions
Phuket Town is located in the east of Phuket Island, also known as Phuket Old Street. It is the historical and cultural center of Phuket and a window into the historical and cultural soul of Phuket. This area was built during the peak of tin mining in the late 19th and early 20th centuries and now retains many Portuguese buildings. There are low colorful buildings on both sides of the street. It can be said to be a literary and fresh town.
It is a certain distance from the seaside of the town, and has more of a small and fresh style. It’s also a good idea to choose to sit in a small shop. Phuket Town is the capital of Phuket and the seat of Phuket government agencies. The main streets are Tailang Road, Ratsada Road, Phuket Road and Ranong Road. There are galleries, bars, cafes, etc. On the street. Full of atmosphere and sentiment. The diversified old buildings, old cars, and old buses with Sino-Portuguese characteristics have preserved the colonial style of the past when commerce was developed.
Tips for visiting Phuket Town
1. Rent a motorcycle
The best way to go to Phuket Town is to rent a motorcycle, which costs about 60 yuan a day . Before the trip, I saw many people on the Internet saying that motorcycles would be inspected by the police, but we had never seen that. Later I found out that most policemen check whether they are wearing helmets, so everyone must remember to wear helmets! Also, a friendly reminder, motorcycles are all oil-free. When renting a car, you have to fill up your own gas. When you arrive in Phuket, park your car in the designated area, and then walk around one by one to feel the rich local customs.
2. Take a group of unforgettable travel photos
The buildings here are colorful and fresh. Puji Town is full of art, colorful and there are always various murals inadvertently. There are also many galleries in the old city. The painters there are excellent and full of three-dimensionality. The places favored by artists are always full of wonder and admiration. Taking photos here has a unique style~
3. Taste the shrimp sashimi
I recommend this restaurant, onechuncoffee, which can be found on Dianping. The Chinese name is pure coffee. The main dish of this restaurant is shrimp sashimi, which is very unique and the shrimp meat tastes fresh and tender! We also tasted Tom Yum soup, mango sticky rice and local milk tea here. Tom Yum Goong is very authentic and the mango is very sweet!
4. Taste local desserts
Torrey's Ice Cream Hotel is hidden in a very artistic old street, and many foreigners check in. Not only is the surrounding beautiful, there are also many colorful Portuguese buildings and graffiti walls. The store is also very retro. You must check it out: rose macaroons, coconut ice cream, rose water.
5. Experience the local specialty of horse killing chicken
There are two chain massage parlors in Phuket called Kimmassagespa. The service inside is pretty good, but girls may be a little shy because they have to take off their clothes and the store will provide disposable mini underwear. You can choose your own massage time. If you choose one and a half hours, the price is about 100 RMB/person.
