summary

One of the most important temples on the entire island of Phuket is Jui Tui Shrine, which is located in the center of Phuket. The temple was situated in Phuket Old Town and was built in 1911. However, the temple was moved to its current location, Soi Phutorn, following a fire catastrophe. The temple's building underwent numerous renovations throughout the years, resulting in a stunningly colorful layout with three enormous altars displaying statues of old Chinese deities.  The largest of the three main shrines is devoted to the Chinese deity Tian Hu Huan Soy. Right in the center of the main altar, one can find his mural among his beloved animals. 

In addition, the temple has a sizable firecracker house where festivalgoers can throw flaming fireworks to reduce air pollution. Locals who commemorate their important occasions and festivals here give the location a lot of meaning. Jui Tui Shrine, however, might be an excellent spot to learn about your fortune if one is interested in doing so. One can locate bamboo cups made of a few bamboo sticks paired with numbers and papers that reveal your fortune in the spacious prayer hall.
