INDIAN CHIEF TRAVEL http://beta.indianchieftravel.com A Green Planet: Sustainable, paperless travel guides for destinations around the world. en Patong http://beta.indianchieftravel.com/en/thailand/phuket/phuket/phuket-thailand-1 <!-- google_ad_section_start --><div class="field field-type-text field-field-teaser"> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd"> <p> This heavily populated area on the western shore of Phuket was devastated by the tsunami. Patong, which attracts tourists in vast numbers, is jammed with hotels and cheap inns. Its streets are choked with bars and tiny stores. The area caters to everyone. Quiet English families mingle with Australian youths bent on beer binging. Transvestites sit in seedy bars, and tiny Thai girls seek customers for massage parlors that do not always follow the ancient rules of healing. Gay couples stroll arm-in-arm alongside petite camera-clutching Orientals. Street markets offer the full range of inexpensive “copies” of watches, designer clothes, CDs and luggage. Tourist trinkets feature elephants and colorful but cheap silk products. If it wasn’t for the heat or the chatter of the Thai traders this could be Blackpool or Southend, two of Britain’s major holiday centers. We are also reminded of San Antonio, on the Spanish island of Ibiza, which tends to attract the British lager louts. Locals expect the summer brawls and bravado. One told us, “Football hooligans have to holiday somewhere. At least we know where they are!” </p> </div> </div> </div> <p> <strong>Patong</strong> </p> <!-- google_ad_section_end --><p><a href="http://beta.indianchieftravel.com/en/thailand/phuket/phuket/phuket-thailand-1" target="_blank">read more</a></p> http://beta.indianchieftravel.com/en/thailand/phuket/phuket/phuket-thailand-1#comments Phuket Phuket Thu, 06 Dec 2007 06:18:29 +0000 admin 198400 at http://beta.indianchieftravel.com
