Now I am back in Thailand but this time not Bangkok but Phuket. Phuket, a rainforested, mountainous island in the Andaman Sea, has some of Thailand’s most popular beaches. The James Bond and Phi phi island are example of those famous beaches. Mostly situated along the clear waters of the western shore. The island is home to many high-end seaside resorts, spas and restaurants. Phuket City, the capital, has old shophouses and busy night markets as well . Patong is one of  the main resort town and it has many nightclubs or bars.

Before i come to Phuket, i thought that it will be only beaches and some rainforest that i can explore. But i was totally wrong! There is much more that you can imagine and expect. If you want a different experience rather than the usual Bangkok. Be sure to travel to Phuket to explore this island. It's only 1 and a half hour trip away from Singapore :) 



I will sign off now and i will definitely visit Phuket again! ✿
