| Phang-nga Shopping
Phang-nga’s most famous local buys are its artificial flowers
made from rubber and fish scales. The quite exquisite products
are sold at the Phang-nga Provincial Agricultural Office (Tel:
0 7641 2019) and the Farmers Housewives Group.
For many, Krabi, located 814 km. south of Bangkok, is the
most beautiful province along the Andaman coast. It is the kind
of place where tired clichés like idyllic and pristine take on a
whole new meaning. With the display of characteristic beaches
and qualified soft coast of the Andaman, fine white sand, warm
clear water and lush tropical greenery spilling onto the shore,
provides a dramatic backdrop to the sites.
The locations are rust-hued cliffs, some soaring to 1,000 feet.
There are also offshore islands, most famously the twin Phi Phi
isles, the location for the movie The Beach, and reputed Ko Lanta.
