Phuket Information
Phuket
is Thailand ’s largest island, approximately the size of Singapore.
Phuket nestles in balmy Andaman Sea waters on Thailand’s Indian
Ocean coastline 862 kilometres south of Bangkok.
Phuket formerly derives its wealth from tin and rubber, and enjoyed
a rich and colourful history. The island was on one of the major
trading routes between India and China, and was frequently mentioned
in foreign trader’s ship logs.
The Portuguese, French, Dutch and English traded with Phuket. Other
visitors were less friendly. Phuket’s most famous monument
is the memorial statue of the heroines Thao Thepkasattri and Thao
Sisunthon, who rallied islanders in 1785 to repel Burmese invaders.
Phuket is blessed with magnificent coves and bays, powdery, palm-fringed
white beaches, sparkling island-dotted seas, sincerely hospitable
people, superb accommodations and seafood, delightful turn-of-the-century
Sino-Portuguese architecture; numerous sporting and leisure opportunities;
a lush tropical landscape – all of which combine to create
a delightful ambience for truly memorable holidays.
