A must to visit. Fine architecture of a Siam Temple!

Cashew Nut Factory
Doesn't worth visiting if you don't have the time. The cashew nut and all the other items like souveniers sold are marked at a high price. Takes us only 15 minutes to visit the factor, just to take a look at how they crack a cashew nut.
This traditional nutcracker is used to crack the nut |
This stick is used to take the cashew nut out |
Look at the raw cashew nut on the tree |
Big Buddha Phuket
( refer to http://www.phuket.com/magazine/big-buddha-today.htm for more information )
It was drizzling on the day we visited Big Buddha. As you could see, Big Buddha is at the hilltop, the weather was chilly and would make you shivering in thin clothings. Luckily, I brought along my cardigan :) too bad that it's misty and there're some projects going on.
Phromthep Cape
( refer to http://www.phuket.com/island/promthep-cape.htm for more info )
The scenic view from the hilltop is indeed breathtaking!
Do drop by the stalls at the roadside to buy souveniers made from seashells. They are so cheap and unique!
