    Kathu Museum

      What used to be a very rundown house by the side of the road in Kathu is now transformed into a small and half-abandoned lovely museum about Phuket Food. It used to be part of the large beer storage warehouse. It’s beautiful from the outside, but there is not much to see inside, and the staircase leading to the second floor is often closed.

              The Museum Phuket sits at a bustling intersection in Old Phuket Town, where two historic buildings face each other across Phang Nga Road and Phuket Roads. One is the former Chartered Bank, and the other is the old police station, easily recognised by its yellow clock tower.

                  The Thai Hua Museum on Krabi Road in Phuket Town is a pleasant surprise. We visited it a few years ago when it reopened, and despite being in a beautiful mansion, it was just an empty building.
