Shop for art at these places in Phuket

Shopping in Phuket is increasingly comparable to the experience in Bangkok. What would a vacation be without a bit of shopping anyway? Get ready to pack some souvenirs for all the family! Make the most of your time at the island as there as is a great variety of shopping to look forward to, from the more traditionally Thai variety – bustling night markets and open-air village food markets, street stalls and local vendors to international department stores and luxury shops. Anticipate an exciting mix of luxury and fair price on your hunt for the coolest clothes! Prices vary accordingly – great value deals to burn-a-hole-in-your-pocket designer labels. In fact, the five best shopping malls in Phuket are not incredibly very different from Bangkok’s mega-shopping complexes. In developed and modern Phuket today, malls are everywhere, but this has not meant that they have crowded out traditional market life on the island. What's worth noting is that Thai people like to ‘group’ their shops, so you'll find there are several shops selling a specific item on the same street. Phuket Town Central Market is the best place to see the vibrant colors and feel pulse of Thai life. At the center of the market is the food section with fresh poultry, meat, fish, vegetables, fruit, herbs and fragrant flowers. One can soak in the aroma of herbs and spices and the vast array of unusual products. On the periphery are numerous small stores selling different brands of clothes, travel bags, kitchenware, electrical goods, silk, handicrafts and a host of other goods all at extraordinarily low prices and you can still bargain these down! Your souvenir shopping list should include Thai handicraft items, antiques, and maybe even colorful batik sarongs! You need to head to the malls of Phuket for a feel of the contemporary - they feature international brand names at bargain prices, movie halls, great entertainment options, and an array of world class restaurants with a variety of popular cuisines. They say that if you cannot find a particular item you are looking for at Jungceylon Mall, then you won’t find it in Thailand! Central Festival Phuket, on the other hand, is a consummate one-stop shopping, non-stop entertainment complex for every Phuket resident and visitor. Enjoy the newest, largest, most complete shopping and entertainment complex in the South. We have put together a comprehensive list of the best shopping places for art and souvenirs in Phuket:
