Have Fun in Phuket, Thailand
来源:http://www.goaround.org/travel-asia/247536.htm
Take a day trip. Among the many exotic choices are sea canoeing and white water rafting. You can also visit Khao Phra Thaeo, the luscious national park, and swim in a waterhole or take a ride on an elephant.
Get a massage. Get another massage. Repeat. An hour-long massage starts at around 6 dollars, and massage styles include traditional Thai and hot stone, as well as the more traditional American style. You can find massage parlors all around the island, and you can even get a massage while relaxing on the beach if you are so inclined.
Shop 'til you drop at the extensive open air markets. You can haggle with the merchants to come away with some great bargains on clothing, luggage, handbags and jewelry.
Dine at one of the beachfront restaurants. You will be mesmerized by the ocean views and sounds as you enjoy a beverage and authentic Thai cuisine.
Participate in the local culture. Try to plan your trip around one of the national festivals, such as the Loy Krathong festival in November. Eat local specialty foods and learn a few words of Thai. Immersing yourself in the culture will add depth to your vacation experience.
Commune with the creatures of the sea by scuba diving or snorkeling. The marine life in the waters surrounding Phuket is extensive and beautiful, and you should not miss the opportunity to have such close contact with this underwater world.
