Historical Architecture in Phuket Town
Take a walk back in time past marvelous classic homes and shops built during
Phuket's tin boom in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Many of these houses
were constructed in the Sino-Portuguese architectural style. The best routes to take
are down Phang Nga, Thalang, Dibuk, Krabi, and Yaowarat roads. Keep an eye out for
the spectacular Soi Romanee, located off Thalang Road (For further details see His-
toric Buildings in Phuket Town ) .
