Phuket Old Town

Wander through the colorful streets to admire the unique Sino-Portuguese architecture and soak in the historic atmosphere.

In their own words: “Good morning guys. We have come to the historic center of Phuket and coming in we really like the vibe here. It reminds us of Penang in Malaysia and that's because of the history here in Phuket. What you'll see as we walk around this area and as we came in is all these beautiful colorful buildings. This is Sino-Portuguese architecture. So a mix of Chinese and Portuguese architecture in this area.”

Spend a night or two in Phuket Old Town to immerse yourself in the island's history and culture, and savor some of the best street food, including Michelin-starred options.
