The Old Town - Phuket

The Old Town is a historically rich part of Phuket town where you will see an abundance of temples (Chinese and Buddhist), beautiful shops, small printing shops and a disused red light district. The Old Town was created during a boom many years ago when metal was a valuable commodity. It is a place with a mixture of modern art along with traditional architecture. The town itself is not that big, but you can easily spend a good 2-3 hours walking around this area. There are plenty of food options around here, ranging from street stalls, to Pubs and Cafes. So you won’t be struggling finding a nice place to eat or drink a cup of coffee. There are also lots of things to buy, ranging from hand made souvenirs to clothing that is exclusive to Phuket and nice beach wears around here. #staycation #phuket #thailand
