Old Phuket Town is awash with interesting streets to walk along, such as Dibuk and Thalang roads where you’ll come across a small alleyway that connects the two, called Soi Rommanee. Here you’ll find a colourful collection of Sino-Portuguese buildings, some of which have been converted into bars, cafés and guesthouses. Phuket Walking Street, known in Thai as Lardyai is well worth a stroll through. This lively market selling mostly food and souvenirs is held every Sunday from 16:00 to 22:00 along Thalang Road. Head up to Khao Rang Hill for an expansive view of the city, as well as out to sea and towards other islands. It is the second highest hill in Phuket Town where you’ll find a selection of Thai eateries at the top from where you can indulge in a sunset drink and tasty meal. The hill is also home to some rather cheeky monkeys so be mindful of your belongings.
