The Kathu surface area of Phuket, which lies (roughly) betwixt Phuket City together with Patong Beach was the old mail away mining working capital missive of the alphabet of Phuket - it was mail away (along amongst rubber, fishing, coconuts, palm crude oil together with more) that made Phuket a relatively wealthy tell of Thailand long earlier whatever tourists arrived. The mail away nail started inwards the 18th century, bringing many Chinese workers to Phuket, which accounts for the large Chinese-Thai population that y'all run across today (very dissimilar to surrounding provinces). The whole surface area is covered inwards ponds together with lakes, all of which are old mail away mines.
There are a publish of Chinese shrines inwards the surface area such every bit Kathu shrine together with Sam Kong Shrine, together with also roughly Wats (Buddhist temples). On Dominicus nosotros had a await at Ket-Ho temple (located at Ket Ho junction well-nigh the Prince of Songkhla University), together with after inwards the afternoon, visited Kathu temple on the border of Kathu village. I pick out driven past times the Ket Ho temple a K times. It's on the double-decker road from Phuket Town to Patong, upward a slight hill. Like many local temples, it was tranquillity together with uncrowded (only us there), relieve for a publish of noisy dogs. I don't believe the temple has anything spectacular to offer, but I merely similar local temples.
Not also far away is Kathu temple merely exterior of the old Kathu village.
