In Phuket, it's a very busy area. It's very convenient to eat, live and travel. There are many shopping malls. The beach is relatively poor in sand. Food can pay more attention to street vendors. Often, delicious food is hiding in the corner.
Phuket island is a pretty famous international resort island. Pathong beach is the most exciting place tovisit. There are quite a few mater-taxi and quite limited public transportstion in the island. At the front road in Pathong beach, there is Tuk TukIf you do not rent a motorbike or a car, it is convenient for use. And you can experience a touch negotiationwith Tuk Tuk driver... lol
