So you are wondering what should be your next vacation. You want to lounge on the beach and watch a sunset, but you also want to party into the small hours of the night. You want to explore forests and jungles, but you also want to explore culture and history. You want to laze around doing nothing, but you also want to get your blood pumping. You want to pamper yourself – in mind, body and soul. This is exactly why you should travel to Phuket, Thailand.
As you would know from a simple search – and many personal accounts of friends – Patong beach boasts of a nightlife unlike any other. The vibrant energy of multitudes of people all from different backgrounds but tapping into the same reservoir of energy is a sight to behold. But you need not miss the relaxing solitude of waves crashing on the sun-kissed sand, for Nai Haran beach, Kata beach and Karon beach all offers perfect hideaways for you to lose yourself in. Khao Phra Taew Wildlife Park will sate your desire to experience lush greens of a tropical forest and listen to the music of a waterfall. Wat Chalang, Wat Phra Thong, and Wat Phranangsang will provide you the religious roots of the country, with its larger than life Buddha statues that are a sight to behold. Moving out of religion towards to tangible history, a visit to Koh Sireh will satisfy the historian in you, as you listen to the tales of descendants from the first settlers in Phuket. You can sip a cold cocktail at your beach resort or take the plunge into the waters and dive, yacht or take to the skies in sky kayaking. You can visit a renowned Thai spa for treatment for the soul, meditate by the sea for a calmer mind or take up kickboxing classes at Anantara Mai Khao Phuket Villas for a stronger body.
Phuket is an all-in-one deal that is ideal for the traveller who is unable to decide what exactly they want from their vacation. With everything that is on offer here, it is assured that you will not lose out by selecting Phuket as your next travel destination.
