Destinations
Of the Month
Phuket, Thailand's largest island is one of the most
popular tourist destinations in Southeast Asia and is also
the main city on the island. This island is rich in
natural resources and is separated from the mainland by a
narrow sea channel which is connected by a bridge. There
are long beautiful sandy beaches, rocky coast lines and
places with large limestone cliffs facing the ocean. There
is a lot to do in Phuket, and consequently, a lot to spend
your money too.
