Entry fee of 200 Baht per person, located in Old Town. It is an old school with history of Chinese people in Phuket. The building gets really suffocating in the heat. There isn’t much to see and the interactive things barely work. Not really worth as it didn’t have a great amount of information and was overpriced and hot. You can skip this attraction if you wish

Museum in a 1934 building with galleries on the history of Chinese people in Phuket. The oldest school one of Phuket and various story behind the past before to be the museum now a day. Amazing for the one who interested in history.

The museum itself is quite nice and good for photo shoots but I don’t think with Thailand weather it is worth because they didn’t turn on any fans or air conditioning which is make me really hot so that’s minus 1 and another things is ticket lady, she seem so angry all the time

    The Big Buddha in Phuket is a breathtaking attraction that captivates with its majestic presence. The colossal statue, standing at 45 meters tall, offers stunning panoramic views of the island. A must-visit destination. However, be prepared for crowds during peak hours and watch out for monkeys ?that like to steal your wallet ?

    Arriving at the Big Buddha on a bike was already a delightful experience for me. The winding road leading to the Buddha was incredibly scenic, surrounded by lush trees, and offered glimpses of monkeys and elephants available for rides at a fee offered by locals. There’s ample parking near the Big Buddha. I rate the panoramic view of Phuket from the Big Buddha site as the highest highlight. The view is truly mesmerizing, providing a sweeping sight of almost the entire island. However, one downside is the evident need for some restoration in certain areas; many sculptures seem old and in need of care.

    The Big Buddha is a must-see if you are visiting Phuket.

    Even if you’ve seen other Buddhas around the world, this one offers amazing 360 views of the entire island and is stunning on a gorgeous day. There are picnic areas where you can bring your own food to enjoy the scenery. Please be respectful and avoid bringing alcohol.

    There is no entrance fee. Because it’s so touristy, it’s not difficult to find a Grab to get you to your next destination.

    Big Buddha Phuket is a tranquil gem, offering stunning views and a serene atmosphere. The majestic statue is a symbol of Thai spirituality, and the surroundings provide a peaceful escape. A must-visit for a blend of culture and tranquility.

    It’s worth the visit! It’s really beautiful, the surrounding area as well, with other statues, the list of famous people who chose Buddhism, the monkeys close by (don’t get close, though) and the sea view. Too bad there is nothing to visit inside. To be respectful, you have to cover your knees and shoulders, but I did see people in shorts and tank tops too. There is no entrance fee.
