Phuket is located approximately at 862 kilometers
south of Bangkok and is Thailand largest island
, which is often dubbed as "the pearl of the
Andaman, or the pearl of the south". It's natural
resources- rocky peninsular, limestone cliffs, white
powdery beaches, tranquil broad bays and tropical
in-land forests contribute to making it the South's
wealthiest, busiest, most visited and most popular
island and province.
Phuket has a lot more to offer its visitors other than
its natural heritage - sea, sand, sky, beach, forest,
and world renowned diving sites. Sino-Portuguese
architecture casts its spell delighting travelers to
the city, while Phuket-style hospitality has never
failed to impress visitors from all walks of life.
In addition, accommodations ranging from world-
class resorts to tropical-style bungalows have
warmly catered to the different needs of travelers.
For seafood lovers, there is a lot more to sample
than just Phuket's famous lobster. Altogether,
these characteristics have made Phuket a truly
unique destination. |
