If you’re in Phuket, don’t just stick to beaches — Old Phuket Town is a treasure trove of history, culture, and amazing eats! Here’s the ultimate mini-itinerary to explore its unique vibes:
📍 Stop 1: Phuket Nagara Museum (พิพิธภัณฑ์ภูเก็ตนครา)
Step back in time at this heritage museum, where you’ll discover Phuket’s Sino-Portuguese past, Peranakan culture, and traditional costumes. A must-visit for history lovers and anyone curious about Phuket’s multicultural roots.
💸 Entrance Fee: Free entry
⏰ Time Needed: 30 ~ 45 mins
📍 Google Maps: Phuket Nagara Museum
💡 Tip: Great spot for photos — the Peranakan costumes display is stunning!
📍 Stop 2: Thaivetro Ice Cream (ไอศกรีมไทยเวโตร)
Cool down with homemade ice cream in quirky flavors like Thai milk tea, coconut, durian, or chocolate mint. Their signature crispy cone pairs perfectly with double or triple scoops.
🍦 Price: ~THB 60–120 depending on scoops
📍 Google Maps: Thaivetro Ice Cream
💡 Tip: Order at least 2–3 flavors — it melts fast in Phuket’s heat, but that just means you get to enjoy it quicker!
📍 Stop 3: A Pong Mae Sunee (อาโป๊งแม่สุณี)
End your stroll with Phuket’s most famous street snack: A Pong (crispy coconut pancakes). This humble cart has been awarded the Michelin Guide recognition (2023–2025!), and the pancakes are only THB 5 each. Paper-thin, smoky, and lightly sweet — you won’t stop at one.
🥞 Price: THB 5/piece | 6 pieces for THB 25
📍 Google Maps: A Pong Mae Sunee
💡 Tip: Go early — they sell out quickly. Best enjoyed hot off the charcoal stove!
✨ One Afternoon, Three Experiences:
1️⃣ Culture at Phuket Nagara Museum
2️⃣ Sweet indulgence at Thaivetro Ice Cream
3️⃣ Michelin street snack at A Pong Mae Sunee
This is Old Phuket Town in a nutshell: history, flavors, and unforgettable local charm. 💕
