Phuket Hotels
PhuketWhen visiting Phuket, whether it is your only stop in Thailand or not, you’ll want to stop by some of the ancient rural temples. There are many temples on the island, but the most notable might be the Wat Pra Tong. Legends say that many years ago a farmer tied his buffalo to a pole protruding from the ground and instantly dropped dead. Locals examined the sight and found that the pole was actually the top of an enormous Buddha that had been buried. Many attempts to dig the Buddha out have failed and eventually locals concluded that the Buddha wanted to stay in the earth. So instead locals built a smaller Buddha out of plaster around the protruding image and built a temple around it. If you are looking for natural attractions you’ll want to see the 90 sq. km. Haad Nai Yang National Park. The Haad Nai Yang National Park offers a welcome rest from tourist-heavy areas. Here you will find giant leatherback tortoises, playful monkeys, and one of the largest coral reefs in shallow water. For dining you’ll find everything from Starbucks and McDonalds to finer restaurants featuring some of the freshest seafood anywhere. One of the most popular places to eat is The Boathouse and Mom Tri’s Kitchen. The cuisine combines the best of the east and the west and its chefs strive for the best culinary experience on the island.
