 Phuket Vegetarian Festival - While tourists sunbath on the white sandy beaches and swim in the deep blue sea, residents in downtown Phuket are busy gearing up for the annual vegetarian festival.
Celebrated by the Chinese community on the island that's best known for its palm-fringed beaches, stylish and rustic-chic resorts and laid-back attitude, the annual Vegetarian Festival showcases Phuket's mystical side.
A combination of vegetarian food, peaceful chants, ear-splitting firecrackers and mind-blowing processions, visitors to the island should make a point of heading into town to see a very different side to the Pearl of the Andaman.
The Vegetarian Festival has been an annual event merit-making for more than 150 years.
