The island of Phuket always captures the imagination of the visitor. Even on a rainy day in Phuket, you will find a number of interesting indoor activities that will appeal to you, like those described below.
Scattered around Phuket you will find an array of spas that offer treatments such as body scrubs, facials, Thai style massage and many others. You will find a diverse range of treatments in the spas of Phuket ranging from a 10,000 baht pampering comprehensive treatment to a more modest conventional massage costing 300 baht. Fortunately, since there is a great multitude of parlours situated in many different locations in Phuket you will probably not have to go far to obtain your desired treatments. In Thailand when it comes to spa treatments you may find that the traditional concepts of healing blend with modern spa practices.
If you enjoy shopping make it a point to visit Jungceylon Shopping Mall which may be found on Patong Beach. This mall will be a great experience for a rainy day as you will find plenty to do and enjoy here. At this mall, you will find an interesting selection of merchandise, including fabrics, clothing, souvenirs, homeware and much more. However, the attractions of this mall do not end there as you will also find a movie theatre, an indoor range for shooting, bowling, a museum, a laser gun feature, fish spas and a game arcade.
Another shopping highlight on the island is Central Festival Phuket, a comprehensively equipped air-conditioned mall which is situated in proximity to Phuket Town. Reputed as Phuket's hub for shopping, this mall contains more than 120 individual outlets. You will easily find enough attractions to spend an entire day at this mall, as you will be able to shop amidst the numerous stores, catch a lately released movie and dine in one of the many attractive restaurants. When it comes to dining options at this mall you will have the opportunity to select from a range of international cuisine including European, Japanese and Thai foods.
The entire family is sure to be enthralled by this distinctive attraction in Phuket. At this museum, you will encounter a host of three-dimensional paintings that create optical illusions which make for amazing opportunities for photographs. This establishment is located within an expansive building that formerly housed a movie theatre. At Phuket Trickeye Museum you will have the opportunity to include yourself in fantastic scenes like standing atop a shattered bridge over surging rapids, riding the subway alongside a zombie, being pursued by bulls in a town in Spain, and so on. An accommodation choice to consider from which this attraction would be within convenient reach would be Kata Rocks, amongst the conveniently located Phuket luxury villas in Thailand.
Thailand's exotic and rich heritage is showcased in the Phuket Fantasea Show which provides splendid entertainment for the viewer whilst depicting the beauty and charm of Thailand. In this show, you will see that the ancient traditions of Thailand are enriched by the stunning wonders of state of the art special effects and technology. This entrancing show uses its humour, colours, dramatics and all-around impressiveness to make a strong impression on the mind of the viewer. Phuket Fantasea will be a delightful evening's entertainment for the visitor to Phuket that will appeal to the tastes of many.
