Top 9 Things to do in Phuket Town, Thailand
Colorful Phuket is a mélange of lifestyles, a place where tranquil monks navigate the same streets as pumped up nightclubbers. The ornate temples and lively cafes of Old Town are prime spots for exploration. Check out the Shrine of the Serene Light and the aromatic Nguan Choon Tong herb shop. Browse and bargain for pretty trinkets at the nearby Thai Amulet Market. Don’t miss an opportunity to take in a performance at the epic Siam Niramit Phuket theater, a true cultural extravaganza.

1. Phuket Big Buddha

Reviewed By tric7400 - Hong Kong, China
There is lots to do here and the views are amazing. You can also learn a 7 minute meditation and receive a gift from a monk and a blessing for a small donation.
The views are amazing but currently there is building works going on which spoils it slightly.
You cannot show your knees or shoulders otherwise you have to borrow some clothes at the entrance but it seems this rule only applied to women!

The training is good but I believe they are now losing focus of the customer. It is starting to become more like Tiger and more of a money factory. The sessions are good but not as friendly anymore. I find some of their information out dated and some of the staff a little rude now. Some are still excellent and you will get a really great workout.

Notice: we took VIP tickets ( siting in front row) my baby get scared when the jump and all water went on us!
6. Wat Chalong
Overall Ratings

Reviewed By Gillian H - Miami, Australia
Wat Chalong - meaning Temple of Celebration is well worth a visit. I was there during Chinese New Year and there were masses of stalls selling food, souvenirs and street food. The place was crowded and buzzing but inside the temple it was peaceful and serene. Outside people let off large amounts of firecrackers in huge ovens - a thank you to Buddha for a wish come true. A place not to miss if you come to Phuket.
7. Monkey Hill
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 750 reviews
Reviewed By ellie3991 - Bristol, United Kingdom
Great place to come if you're in the area. The hill is really steep, I wouldn't recommend walking unless you're really fit and want the exercise, saw a lot of Thais running as it was a good place out of the town to get exercise in a peaceful place. The view at the top is spectacular and a must see. The monkeys are very cute and playful. They are wild but definitely not aggressive as they are used to seeing humans on a daily basis. Use your common sense and don't tease them and you will have a great time. The ones who have given bad reviews were clearly being disrespectful and it is only natural for a wild animal to retaliate.
8. Phuket Trickeye Museum

The first Trickeye 3D Museum of Sounthern Thailand, is located in Phuket Town, Trickeye museum is an interactive museum with a concept that stimulates your creativity and imagination. Be a part of 3D paintings and join the impressive memories together. Much..More than meets the eye..
Reviewed By Dugg0 - Shepparton, Victoria, Australia
Have been to the one in Bali and thought we would check this one out. The paintings here are much better, probably new which made the photographs much better but nit as much staff here to take your photos. Certainly better than upside down world. An easy hour to two if you take your time at the paintings well worth the 500bt each...
9. Khao Rang Hill View Point
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 452 reviews
Excellent lookout in Phuket
Reviewed By Tote919 - Bangkok, Thailand
It's the best place to see Phuket both day and night. You can see 360 degree view from there. There are 2 restaurants/cafe up there and a small park. Recommend you go there in late afternoon or early evening before the sunset, have a cup of coffee, afternoon tea or a light meal. Then you will see the daylight view, the sunset and the night scenery of Phuket.
