Phuket will meet you from the aircraft about this type of sight:
These photos were removed from the observation deck in the Big Buddha, but believe me on the word view from the window before planting almost the same.
My associations with the word "kingdom" - tales from childhood, Thailand fully justifies it. There is nothing medieval in it, but the country is really similar to a fairy tale. Of course, there are both weekdays here, and everyday life, but magic everywhere, you just need to be able to see.
The country is predominantly Buddhist religion, there are provinces where Muslim prevails, but Buddhism is more common in Phuket. There are a lot of temple complexes on the island, there are old buildings, there are relatively recent, but each of them is beautiful.
In addition to countless temples, Buddhists have a tradition near each house, shop, hotels build their mini-temple. There are usually placed small statues, flowers and dishes with food. It is believed that the richer is decorated with its own mini-temple, the more farewell the highest strength to its owner.
The second remarkable tradition is a purchase, such as birds. If you buy a bird in a cage, you must let her go, give her freedom. It brings happiness.
Phuket Town is built up very tight, the houses are small, mostly up to five floors. Only in the past few years they began to build multi-storey houses, but they are very few. The movement of right-sided and at first glance is chaotic. But after watching a long time for the peculiarities of the movement of Thais and accepting participation in it, I can say that the first impression is erroneous. On the contrary, it is very organized. The most common type of transport Motobike.
The day at Thais begins very early, most wakes up with the sunrise. In the afternoon there is no special revival on the streets, everyone work. With the occurrence of the evening everything changes.
But some continue to work.
Or begin with the occurrence of the evening.
