Approximately 1.75 million Rai of the island is forest. Phuket Town also has some wonderful examples of Sino-Portugese architecture.

Phuket Town is interesting for its surviving examples of old Sino-Portuguese architecture - reminders of the island's long and interesting history - and for its shopping and entertainment possibilities. especially on Dibuk Road, have old wooden doors with Chinese fretwork carving.
