Phuket attractions introduce the eight must-see attractions in Phuket.

Phuket is the first choice for people to travel abroad, and the scenery is very colorful. Many tourists flock to Phuket every year. So what are the classic punch-in attractions in Phuket that are highly recommended by everyone?

1, Chalong Temple

Recommended index:

Chalong Temple is the most popular temple in southern Thailand. There are more locals here than tourists! In the main hall, devout believers made a wish to three monks. One way is to stick gold foil on the stone statue of the monk. The real wax museum next to the main hall is unremarkable, and few tourists will notice it, but there are three real monks in it! If the wax museum is open, you can go in and have a look.

Another must-see building is the towering stupa, which has three floors. Climbing the stupa, you can overlook the whole Chalong Temple and have a wide view. On the third floor of the stupa, precious relics are enshrined, and many people can be seen worshipping here.

Tips:

If you need to enter the temple (main hall, wax museum, stupa), you need to wear a sleeveless top and a coat below the knee. You must take off your shoes. If the dress does not meet the requirements, there is a shawl at the entrance of the stupa, which visitors can use for free to cover their legs or arms. If you want to experience it deeply, you can also sacrifice 20 baht of "incense money" for a lotus flower and put it in front of the stone statues of the three eminent monks in the main hall.

2. Fairy Peninsula

Recommended index:

This is the most famous sunset spot in Phuket, but it doesn't have to be at sunset. At sunset, there are many people and cars here, and the bustling crowd and noise are actually reduced. During the day, there are few people on the fairy peninsula. Standing under the tall palm trees overlooking the coastline, the sea breeze is blowing gently, which is refreshing.

How to get to the fairy peninsula?

Recommendation: It is recommended to add this point to the chartered itinerary, and the tour time can be reserved for 30 minutes.

Recommendation: Book a half-day tour around the island by carpooling. Not only the Fairy Peninsula, Chalong Temple and Puji Town can complete the scenic spots at one time. The price of carpooling is 99 yuan, which is much more affordable than chartered car.

3. The giant Buddha on the top of the mountain

Recommended index:

Although this is a huge building that has not been completed for many years, it does not prevent tourists from climbing to the top of the Buddha and overlooking the whole seascape in the south of Phuket! The bottom of the Buddha statue is still under construction, but the photo is still ambitious. There is a very steep slope on the road leading to the Giant Buddha at the top of the mountain. If it is a motorcycle or a sudden bus, it is difficult to get up. If it rains, basically no driver will go there, because it is dangerous to slip on the slope.

Recommendation: It is recommended to add this point to the chartered itinerary, and the tour time can be reserved for 30 minutes.

4. Laojie District, Phuket Town

Recommended index:

It is highly recommended to spend most of the day in the old town of Phuket. Small as it is, it's delicious. There are not only Portuguese-style buildings here, but also Chinese arcades with strong southern flavor. The colorful houses in the corners and alleys make people feel like they are in the colorful streets of Little India. The famous Thalang Road and Romanji Lane are streets worth visiting, and many newcomers will take wedding photos here along the way.

How to get to the old district of Phuket Town?

Recommended: Economic route: Take Panda Bus to Phuket Central Department Store, and then take the bus from Central Department Store. Panda 20 yuan, plus 15 baht. But no one on the bus can speak English, so you should inform the conductor of the destination in advance. You can also take a taxi from the Central Department Store for 300 baht.

Recommended: Convenient route: chartered car, allowing drivers to stop at ThalangRoad and start sightseeing, and make an appointment for 30 minutes to 1 hour. If you are not in a hurry, it is recommended to stroll slowly.

Recommendation: Rent a motorcycle. There are many places where you can rent motorcycles and experience authentic local customs. But Thailand is driving in the opposite direction to China. The streets and road intersections in Phuket are narrow and it is easy to get lost. Therefore, only friends who have great confidence in their motorcycle driving skills are recommended to try.

5. Vera seafood market

Recommended index:

It's very lively here in the morning. Fishermen came here with fresh seafood that had just been salvaged for sale. Compared with the seafood in Phuket, it is not chilled but alive. The price is not cheap, but the seafood is very fresh. Remember to bargain. If you buy it, you can go to the restaurant opposite the seafood stall for cooking and processing. Buy it and eat it immediately!

How to get to Villa Seafood Market?

Recommended: charter tour plus this. If you eat here, it is enough to reserve an hour and a half.

No: Take a taxi by yourself. It costs 700 baht one way from Badong to Lavail seafood market, and it is difficult to take a taxi back. Where there are few taxis, drivers usually sit on the floor, starting at the price.

6. Karen observation deck

Recommended index:

Although the name is Karen Observation Deck, the location is on the mountain near Kata Beach. Standing on the Cullen observation deck, you can see a panoramic view of the coastline of Kata and Cullen Beach. If the weather is fine, you can make a big film. This is also the punching point for many foreign tourists. There is no need for regular sightseeing here, but you can take a special photo with the coastline.

How to get to Karen observation deck?

Recommendation: It is recommended to add this point to the chartered trip, and you can make an appointment for 20-30 minutes.

No: Take a taxi by yourself. It's 600 baht one way from Badong to Kalun Observation Deck. It is not easy to take a taxi in the scenic spot at ordinary times, and it is also difficult to take a taxi.

7. Karen Beach

Recommended index:

The busiest beach in Phuket is Patong, and the second busiest beach is Karen Beach. Many Russian tourists like to live in Karen State. If they don't want to eat Thai food, there are many western foods to try. Phuket has the longest beach, and it takes at least 40 minutes to walk from south to north. Karen beach is not only very long, but also has the biggest waves, so you can see many blonde girls surfing or sunbathing here!

How to get to Karen Beach?

Recommendation: You can take the Panda Bus to Karen Beach and wander around at will. You can even walk all the way from Karen to Kata Beach, which takes about an hour. You can plan the tour time according to the shift, and the time can be allocated by yourself. As long as the ticket price for three days is 20 yuan, you can go to other scenic spots along the route.

Not recommended: Take a taxi from Badong to Keren Beach, with a one-way trip of at least 300 baht. Short journey and high price.

8. Kata Beach

Recommended index:

The sand in Kata Beach is finer than that in Badong and Karen State, and there are fewer tourists on the beach than in Badong Karen State. It is especially recommended to come here at night, step on the soft and delicate beach and enjoy the sunset with tourists from all over the world. At the southernmost tip of Grand Kata is a bar under a big tree. Sit on the stone pier and drink a glass of beer. To be comfortable on vacation is to be happy along with the sex!

How to get to Kata Beach?

Recommendation: You can take the Panda Bus to Kata Beach. If you want to watch the sunset, no problem. After 7:30 pm, there are three panda buses from Kata to Badong. You can also have dinner nearby before you leave. Don't worry about no car. You can plan the tour time according to the shift, and the time can be allocated by yourself. As long as the ticket price for three days is 20 yuan, you can go to other scenic spots along the route.
