Southern Phuket

Next days were dedicated for cultural and on-land underwater wildlife education. But before we headed off towards new adventures, we needed to enrich our stomachs. We chose Pancake Corner where sweet pancakes and salty eggs with bacon makes sense.



And off we go. We went to south part of the island. First stop Big Buddha. It lies on top of the hill and it could be spotted from all over the island.


Due to it's perfect location the view from the top is simply outstanding.



It is a 45 meter tall remarkable Buddha statue. Locals told us there are ongoing constructions around the Buddha going on for past decade and it doesn't seem to stop any time soon.

nice and clean view

We put our helmets on and continue our journey.

...but first, let us take a selfie...
Next stop was Wat Chalong which is considered as 29 the most important buddhist temples of Phuket. You be the judge.






For the last southern point of the island we decided to visit Phuket Aquarium. We witnessed some odd animals like electric eel, color-free fish and even fake version of mermaid.






To conclude our trip we treated ourselves with some spicy Thai food.



More animal and gourmet experiences to follow. Stay tuned!

Greeting from Phuket,
Boris & Jerneja
