Kathu Mine Museum<br />
พิพิธภัณฑ์เหมืองแร่<br />
Phuket is the biggest island of Thailand. Peoples know<br />
this island as a natural tourist attraction especially white sand<br />
beaches and clear blue sea. Phuket is well developed with<br />
full facilities for any kinds of tourism; international airport, 5<br />
star hotels, discotheques, restaurants or shops. We could say<br />
that Phuket is the tourist centre in the Andaman where easily<br />
connect to other small nearby islands.<br />
In the past, Phuket was a tin mining city centre. With its granite<br />
mountainous topography and rich in tin which was given high price<br />
in the world market, many people rushed to this island for mining<br />
especially the Hokkiens from China, Singapore and Penang.<br />
The Hokkiens had settled down in Phuket, exchanged<br />
their cultures with the locals appeared in a very unique identity<br />
showing in its Chinese-colonial architectural art style which its<br />
influence came from Singapore and Penang where were the<br />
Western colonial towns. They also keep their Chinese languages,<br />
cultures and traditions such as ancestral spiritual offering<br />
ceremony and practicing traditional Chinese vegetarianism<br />
that is very famous and well known throughout the world. After<br />
the declining golden time of tin mining, Phuket has been<br />
developed for tourism because of its geographical island<br />
features with long beautiful beaches on the western coast<br />
and other small islands where are suitable for diving such as<br />
Koh Raja, Koh He, Koh Kai, etc.<br />
Nowadays, millions of tourists visit Phuket every year which<br />
make Phuket the highest income city of the south. Though<br />
area of Phuket is small, but it is fertile with eventually monsoon<br />
rain all the year and rich in many kinds of plantations in the<br />
northern part of the island; for example, rubbers, pineapples,<br />
cashews,coconuts, etc. Fishery and aqua farms for food<br />
supplies are able to be seen on the east coast and industrial supply<br />
to manufactures nearby such as drying rubbers, seafood products,<br />
however the main income is tourism.
