Towards the end of the 19th Century, and during the early 20th Century, Phuket was an important tin mining centre. The island’s prosperity attracted a large number of Chinese immigrants to the island, many of whom settled in Phuket Town. Phuket Town’s Old Quarter has lots of interesting old Sino-Portuguese buildings some of which, such the Chinpracha House, are very large and have been opened to the public to visit.
