Escape the crowd - Phuket Old Town🏝️

#wecreate Not a fan of nightlife and trying to figure out cool place to go in Phuket with lesser crowds? Yeap, Phuket old town is one of the spot. I’ve always avoided Phuket as I personally labelled it as ‘Party Island’ due to its vibrant nightlife. But since Trip offered a good flight price + hotel, I decided to give it a chance for a quick getaway. The first night in Phuket, I went to Bangla road and my social battery drained. If you’re a party people, you’ll definitely love it but not for introvert like me. I was thinking to find other places to go in Phuket and Phuket Old Town caught my attention. I went there the next day at around 8.30am and it’s really quiet. The shops are still closed and only a few cafe open for breakfast. I decided to walk around and grab a chocolate drink from a vending machine (it’s delicious!) and take some cool photos since the Sino-Portuguese building is unique. Colourful! And there’s a plus too if you visit Phuket Old Town. You will get the chance to visit Chalong temple, one of the most important temple in Phuket. I think the best time to visit Phuket Old Town is after 12pm but if you want to take some cool shots without any crowds 8-10am is perfect. If you stayed in Patong area it will take around 20 minutes drive to reach there. #introvertinphuket #phukettrip #quickgetaway
