    Stunning views from the view points both sides of the Buddha we enjoyed it, we had 40 mins on a tour and probably could have used an hour just that bit longer would have been nice.
    150 baht to write a message on a gold leaf to leave there and tie to the fence. Monkeys around the back side please
    Don’t take food or drink the monkeys take it and it’s not good for them 😢 sad to see they had a bottle of drink at today’s visit.

    Lots of photo opportunities

    The absolute chaos that Bangla road is. Is not to be missed although loud and undoubtedly sleazy it is an experience well worth the oodles of sweat shed while walking it, the shopping is insane never accept the discount price always haggle,

    Amazing! The cafe they have for the elephants is so beautiful and passionate. The elephants roam freely, and there is no riding or any abuse. The elephants health and wellbeing is put first. The whole program was incredible from the hotel pickup, to the intro, feeding the elephants their breakfast, learning more about how their rescued and the facilities, and then giving them a mud bath and shower.

    I really couldn’t recommend this place enough! Please visit this sanctuary if you wish to be close to elephants. They really ensure that the elephants are well taken care of and safe.

    Good beach, less busy than others with plenty of amenities.
    The beach has many loungers and umbrellas that can be hired for a small sum. Street food available

    We had been looking at this beach from a far all day from different high viewpoints in Phuket. With how green the water looked from a far I thought that it would be turquoise water when we got there. It wasnt. There are no facilities(showers or bathrooms) that we could see. We set up at the far left if looking at the water where the sun chairs are at to rent. 4 chairs and 2 umbrellas was 400 baht. The sand was extremely hot, so bring some water shoes. The water was like bathtub temps. I could see where that would seem nice, but we were hoping for a cooler dip based off the heat outside. The water color up close was nothing to write home about.

    We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Soi Dog Foundation. We were taken on a very interesting 45 minute tour, and learnt all about the wonderful work this charity does for Street cats and dogs in Phuket. We were able to spend as much time as we wanted to with the puppies and cats. As my wife and I are disabled we weren’t able to take any of the dogs out for walks, but we were pleased to be able to make a donation. This place is a must visit when you are in Phuket, they are doing an incredible job of saving dogs and cats from cruelty and mistreatment.

    patong beach Even though it was cloudy and the sun wasn't very bright, there were still many foreigners sunbathing and taking photos with concave shapes. The characteristic of the beach is that the sand is very fine, like ground pepper, and does not hurt your feet when you walk on it. There are generally fewer tourists and it is quiet; the sea is not as beautiful as Phi Phi Island in Thailand and Sabah in Malaysia, but the beach is good and the long beaches are connected together.
