Bulan
About
Bulan, on Phuket, sits at 37 Thalang Rd in Old Phuket Town, within Tambon Talat Yai in Mueang Phuket District. The clothing store trades from a stretch of road known for its heritage shophouses, so the setting itself is part of the visit.
First-time visitors can expect a shop on the Old Phuket Town side of the island rather than in the beach resort strip, which makes it a stop for a town day rather than a beach day. Sixteen reviews give Bulan a 3.7 out of 5 score, a middling reception from those who have been in. Reaching it from Patong, Karon, Kata, Kamala, Bang Tao, Rawai, Nai Harn or Chalong means a drive across the island to the east coast, since Old Phuket Town sits away from those western and southern beaches. The old quarter around the shop rewards a slow walk between stops.
The shop keeps no listed hours here, so a town visit is best planned around the rest of the day's itinerary. Phuket's Thai islands have a tropical climate with high humidity and warm temperatures all year, and Songkran, the new year water festival, falls nationwide in the middle of April.
Thai cooking uses fish sauce, shrimp paste, coconut milk, lemongrass and chillies, with rice as the staple, so a meal after browsing is easy to find nearby. Many Thai islands are limestone karst, with cliffs, caves and inland lagoons, though Phuket's own draws sit along its coasts. A day that pairs the shop with the surrounding streets makes the most of the town side of the island.
