Phuket Thailand-Shopping Information | ||||
Phuket Shopping
Phuket offers some of Thailand's best selection of handcrafted wares at very affordable prices. No visit to Phuket is complete without visiting some of the unique shops to bring home that perfect souvenir to bring you years of fond memories of this beautiful island. Some of the difficult choices you will be faced with will be what to buy (and what not to buy) and how much you can fit into your luggage. The items available range from fine Thai silk, to elegant teakwood carvings, handpainted parasols, beautiful and colorful batiks, fine pewterware, and southern Thailand's famous pearls. Central,Makro and Jungeceylon are the big shopping areas here in Phuket. Great shopping to be had by all. Phuket is also a very good place to get custom tailored clothing of the highest quality, while not straining your budget. To get you to shopping, you'll want to rent a car. Car rental prices are around 1200-2000 baht per day and petrol is about 40 baht per litre.
