Thailand’s biggest island, Phuket is long established as one of the jewels in the Kingdom’s tourism crown. Yet despite being famed the world over for its white-sand beaches, sumptuous resorts and buzzing nightlife, there’s another – less commercial – side to Phuket that is overlooked by visitors.
Known as the “Pearl of the Andaman”, the island’s beautiful interior shelters gibbon rehabilitation projects as well as fruit orchards and rubber farms. Phuket Town, meanwhile, the island’s fascinating capital, is one of Thailand’s most compelling provincial towns with a beguiling blend of cultural influences.
Phuket’s strategic location has attracted traders from around the globe and the island’s capital carries traces of Europe, Arabia and (especially) China in its distinctive architecture and acclaimed cuisine. From Phuket Town it is a short hop back to the coast where the Phromthep Cape offers some of the best vistas in the country.
