Phuket, Bangkok voted among Asia’s top five holiday spots

BANGKOK: -- Thailand's southern resort province of Phuket and the national capital, Bangkok, have been voted among Asia's top five holiday destinations, according to the TIME Readers’ Travel Choice Awards 2005 survey.

The awards seek to honour the best in Asia’s travel industry, from airlines and airports to hotels and destinations, as identified by the magazine’s readers through an annual survey.

A total of 2,193 individuals responded to the survey conducted from April 18 - June 24. Phuket and Bangkok were ranked second and third respectively in the most favourite holiday destinations category, behind the Indonesian island of Bali.

Meanwhile, Phuket’s Banyan Tree has been voted as first runner up in the Asia’s most favourite resort hotels category.

The Tourism Authority of Thailand says the award reflects both the recovery of Phuket and other Andaman coast tourist centres in the aftermath of last December's Indian Ocean tsunami and the restoration of tourists' confidence in the region.
