People are waiting to a greater extent than or less the ClockTower for the fun to start...

The parade this eventide starts at Sapan Hin as well as Bang Neow Shrine, winds it's agency through Phuket Town to Jui Tui Shrine as well as and thus returns.
I visited Jui Tui showtime as well as my showtime affair was to teach into the identify where you lot are not usually able to teach - the Shrine expanse to the right of the principal shrine as well as links to Pud Jow shrine side past times side to it. Then hither in that location are people preparing their Chinese Shrines for the Parade.
I did non remain - I walked dorsum through the busy nutrient marketplace position to run into my menage unit of measurement at
Clocktower Circle.
It was at this shout out for that I idea that it was getting unsafe as well as that I idea that they should teach dwelling solid - they did (Note: in that location was a gun shooting inwards the later on eventide as well as a drunk foreigner taken past times police).
Then the fireworks began to escalate....
Then in that location was a abrupt deed from a mob of people opposite Mee Ton Poe I - there was some Chinese Dragon Dancers...
5 minutes later on in that location was a 2nd surge - the sedan chairs amongst the god statues inwards began to arrive.

Then the parade began inwards earnest - it was 'politely chaotic' - certainly noisy.
Here are some images of the parade.
