Phuket is a city situated in Phuket Islands, Thailand. It is a small town with an active economic centre, appealing colonial architecture and riveting beaches. Phuket was incorporated as a city in 2004 and is home to a populace of about 60,000 people.
The city is characterised by a tropical monsoon climate with year-round warm temperatures. Phuket possesses two main seasons, dry and wet, owing to the monsoon winds. April to May is the hottest period, while October and November are the coolest months.
The name ‘Phuket’ originates from the word ‘bukit’ which means a hill. Phuket city is an interesting blend of traditionalism and modernism. Its growth-oriented economy consists of tin mining, agriculture and marine products.
My opinion about phuket after visiting this country more than 15 times and islands of course phuket is the most expensive area. And getting every year more expensive if you visit other island or main land. The people the are not smile like before only look the tourist as money people getting more agressive if you dont spent money to buy something. This makes many people to dont spend money. I hope in my next visit to dont see something like this as before..thanks..

Phuket town is a great place to while away the hours, lots of history. Most of the island is great but i do not like Patong but maybe that's because I fall into the older person bracket. The north end of the island has great beaches.
