Patong Beach & Jungceylon Shopping Mall @ Phuket

Among the many beaches in Phuket (Patong Beach, Surin Beach, Kata Beach, Karon Beach, Bang Tao Beach, Kamala Beach), Patong Beach is the most popular beach among tourists visiting Phuket for holiday. I’m not exactly a beach person but you can’t avoid going to beach when you’re in Phuket coz it’s one of the must-do in Phuket.

Patong Beach is crowded with tourists throughout the year.

Thank goodness the hotel we stayed in (Sea Pearl Villas Resort) provides a regular free shuttle service to Patong Beach and Jungceylon Shopping Mall coz taxis in Phuket are very expensive compared to other parts of Thailand like Bangkok :/

Weather in Phuket is extremely hot and I was there in March which happens to be the hottest month :/

You can actually rent chairs and portable umbrellas from the vendors at Patong Beach or else risk go home burned from the hot sun.

Kicking action pose. Though it's been donkey years, I could still master my taekwondo techniques. Now, who Wanna challenge me?

I noticed the Thailand's 7-11 has more varieties of frozen food and snacks compared to the 7Eleven in Malaysia. *jealous

Both Wifey and I were pretty exhausted after our beach visit hence we stopped by the 7Eleven near Patong Beach to grab a drink.

We board the shuttle bus to our next destination - Jungceylon Shopping Mall which apparently is the biggest shopping mall in Phuket.

There's a <strong>Big C Supermarket</strong> in Jungceylon Shopping Mall where you can shop for Thai snacks, beer, groceries or even souvenirs for your family and friends :)

This blog is a platform to share what I love in life: food (eat), travel (play), photography (art) and life (thoughts and ideas). With passion for food, I share my foodie adventures and indulgences here. “There is no love sincerer than the love of food.”

Traveling makes us a better human being as we recognise the similarities and celebrate the differences of cultures between where we travel to and where we come from. “The World is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page.”

Photography do more than just capturing the best moments in our lives; they also help us tell our life stories. “Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving. What you have caught on film is captured forever… it remembers little things, long after you have forgotten everything.”
