I do not know what angle to look at the wind generators, to call them windmills, but the toponym caught on in people and even entrenched on Google Maps. Observation deck Windmill in Phuket is equipped with capital construction – gazebo in which there are benches. This is one of the best viewing. sites on the island, but with a small parking (in fact, the curb roads) and not always on time cleared of trash that is left night two-legs. From here, a magnificent view of the island Mans, and the beaches of Naiharn and Yanui.

Windmill in Phuket
Promthep Alternative Energy Station – so called powerhouse that is engaged in the extraction of electricity using altrenative sources – wind turbines and solar panels. The place for this is chosen more than well, the top of the hill is here open to all the winds and the sun. On the observation deck is easy to get, in the afternoon there are practically no tourists, but a panoramic view almost 360 degrees, and in the evening there are amazing sunsets. By the neighborhood is a jump site for paragliders who only add color to the photos, which are already obtained exceptionally beautiful.
In addition to the name “Windmill”, the place is called: a lookout with wind turbine, Wind Mill Viewpoint, lookout near Nai Harn. Generally, if someone talks about something like this, then you will understand what it. Actually, apart from the view, there is nothing more here. Down both two good beach sides, and a little further away, another 5 minutes on the bike will be Promtep Cape, where there is also a lookout. Only there many more tourists, as they are brought there by buses.
