Apartments for rent in Phuket Town, Thailand
A comfortable
distance from the frenzied nightlife spots of Patong, Kata and Karon,
Phuket Town is a calm, relaxed place to live. Still very much a
‘Thai’ area, Phuket Town also has all the modern amenities you’ll
need. The PhuketSpace Phuket Town apartments are just five minutes
from Central Festival, the biggest shopping mall on the island, and
ten minutes from Tesco Lotus and Big C.
Phuket Town is also oozing with history. Centuries before the island
of Phuket began attracting sand-and-sea tourists, it was an
important centre for Arab, Indian, Malay, Chinese and Portuguese
traders who came to exchange goods for tin and rubber with the rest
of the world. Francis Light, the British colonialist who made nearby
Penang (in Malaysia) the first of the British Straits Settlements,
married a native of Phuket and tried unsuccessfully to pull the
island into the colonial fold. He didn’t succeed!
Although much of the original multicultural heritage has now
disappeared from much of the island, a few vestiges can be seen and
experienced in the province’s
capital, Phuket Town. Evocative traces of Sino-Portuguese
architecture remain and the city streets, which move to the rhythm
of everyday Thai life, feel a long way from the prefabricated hubbub
of Patong. For a glimpse of the Phuket behind the westerner-filled
tourist traps, bars and beaches, Phuket Town is ideal.
