Unique
Phuket:
Phuket's Unusual Qualities
Phuket has a
unique blend of cultures - partially the Chinese Thai and Malay mix
- as well as the immigration onto the island of foreigners - and
many Thais from other parts of the country seeking employment.
Phuket has the highest per capita income of any province in the
country.
To better find your way around check out the
Map Page.

Festivals reflect the blend of
cultures as well as some of the more unusual aspects of Phuket's
nightlife, some links are provided.
The
photo
gallery is a sampling of photos.
Some traditional ones, you might think. These are just a few of this
beautiful island and its flora and fauna.
Do you enjoy
exotic birdlife? Real birds! Phuket has a great selection. If you enjoy bird
watching, this is the place to be.
And
how about a
relaxing massage
at a bargain price? One of Phuket's special
treats is the great selection of massage shops - literally
everywhere on the island - and usually at a great price.
Want to talk like a native?
Thai language
is challenging but the basics are quite doable! Then you can tell
the therapist in the photo here - Ouch!
You'll be glad to know
that Thai's are quite tolerant of foreigners butchering their
language - and are usually pleasantly surprised and happy that you
made the effort. |
