Phuket Island Tour (5)
Sixth day (6 February)--last day today is the last day of Phuket, although not to this day so fast, but time still gave to this moment. No way, only to make the most of the day. Get up, overall baggage, in PATONG VILLA ran last breakfast, do not like the egg matrix also seems to be feeling good. Check-in desk hosting the luggage and started today on the final day of the tour. Today's main task is to PATONG TOWN to go around, where a building is very famous, is said to be a combination of China and Portugal on the architectural style of the two countries. Out the door to door, we cooked books sitting on MINI BUS, heading to the town. BUS shake shaky, a way to take a lot of people, in addition to tourists, many locals, who also did not expect so much on Monday. After the BIG C and CENTRAL FESTIVAL, an hour later we were in town and get off on a road. Look left, at sea, we prepare a map, the town's landmark is not obvious, here you can find the road than in PATONG difficult. Just found a shop, ask the shop owner. I didn't expect was that shopkeepers who watched our half-day, ask is not the Chinese people?: Yes. Haha, never thought a strange encounter endogamous, a Chinese! accent is supposed to be people of Fujian, and later we learned that in many of Phuket Town and Fujianese, China, also comprises a Hokien, of course, this is way down the line. After that time, the shop owner people eager for us the way, thank you very much, start now. We follow the shopkeeper's advice, all the way to go mad. However, walked, huh? find seems wrong again. Look at the map to see the road sign is completely impossible to know, then ask yourself, "to the left, then turn right, straight," OK, according to this directive. Ah, what is back? really make us laugh or cry. All thumbs when, bar a TU-TU, let him take us to go to that place, then take us closer to TOWN not far from the CENTRAL FESTIVAL, total 100B. Cheap price, we also didn't skip also on the bus. It seems that the town of PATONG BEACH prices end ratio is much less. Drivers carrying our a round, right turns, parking, said. To our surprise, this ... This ... This is not what we have come to this place?, since no clear sign of the gate, we have many times and its Raglan. Depressed! car to watch carefully, visitors are not able to enter the building, you can only visit on the outside. In fact, the building still has a lot of character of the House consists of main building and a small annex building, outside there is a very spacious yard, it is estimated that the original should be someone's private residence, now no one is reside. The overall architectural appearance is ecstatic about the style, and the doors and Windows and is Chinese wooden doors and Windows, with many wooden carving is very delicate. The building is 200 years old, but I don't know why the local and not properly protected, dilapidated, and magazine describes the picture is different, and very depressed, decline, and feeling really is a pity. Tour, we also found a Hokien, gate, a stone carved with some at the expense of establishing local primary schools donated some names, it appears that in the Fujian province made a great contribution. Unfortunately when we arrived at noon, Guild-rest, no access, so sorry. The popular town people feel very quiet, very few people, building more stale, far from the bustling PATONG and, after all, it cannot be regarded as tourist attractions, and tours are definitely not possible here, but I still felt very empowered local characteristics, you can learn more about some of the local culture. Leave TOWN, came to CENTRAL FESTIVAL, started today's second task — shopping. Of course this also makes me happy. CENTRAL FESTIVAL Phuket is the largest shopping centre, inside the layout somewhat like Shanghai, CITIC Pacific, garments and footwear brand is relatively wide, there are many Thailand local brand clothing, but like THE BODYSHOP etc. larger brands also can direct tax rebates. CENTRAL FESTIVAL from BIG C, we bought some things go directly after the BIG C. Because the front had already come to invade, cooked books, door directly running into the underwear counters, and completed his colleagues to the my tasks, and then bought some fish sauce, etc., such as winter shade Kung soup Thailand featured food, decided to return to PATONG BEACH to continue purchasing plan. Out the door just to see the MINI BUS through, very lucky. ^ _ ^ And get a look, just hit the Phuket's school, is home from school. Phuket also quite interesting for the students, boys and girls are carrying a looks like we the adults get black Briefcase, estimated that their bags. LG watch, not by the exclamation: "it seems that their students ' learning burden is not heavy, look at their school bag flat. "Oh, it seems to be so well, really happy students. Back to PATONG, once again came to the great OCEAN, took two sets of Wacoal underwear, the price is cheaper than many in Shanghai. Happy, continue to see, think of Thailand abounds in Tin, Tin products not to buy some, unfortunately, so I bought a decorative Tin plate, very characteristic, like Thailand. Well, then out into the streets around it. We continue to work with, and finally completed the procurement task, candle flowers, hand-embroidered cushion, Thailand incense, Thai silk small packet of ... ... I had been included in the bag. See increasingly flat wallet, only angry so stop. Watch from us off to the airport there are 5 hours! damn China Eastern red eye flight. I was also tired out, decided to settle there Jimmy Uncle Jimmy Uncle also supper, howl, turned out to be becassocked do say hello action, Thai style is really a good sweet Jimmy uncle. But I feel the price of wheat Uncle than Shanghai is slightly expensive, then bought a copy of the local paper and some postcards to STARBUCKS, where prices than ShanghaiMuch cheaper, sitting there reading the newspaper, listen to music, drinking coffee, enjoy our last night in Phuket ...
