September 1, 20224 yr From the Thaiger Even though Malaysia has now beaten India for its number of tourists to Thailand overall, Indians are still the biggest tourist group in Phuket. From May 1 to August 30, the island province saw 104,350 Indian tourists arrive on its shores, according to Phuket Immigration. This was out of a total of 436,326 foreign tourists that arrived in Phuket in that time frame. The other countries sending the most tourists to Thailand, in order, have been: Australia, Singapore, the UK, Malaysia, Germany, the US, and Russia. The ongoing flow of Indian tourists has helped to pick up Phuket’s tourism economy this year, following the devastation of Covid-19 restrictions. Phuket’s ‘Old Town’ in the main city district is a particular hotspot for Indian visitors right now, according to tourism leaders. Indian visitors reportedly enjoy taking photos of the Old Town’s scenic architecture. They also enjoy outdoor adventures at beaches and forests. These activities include go-karting and zip-lining.
