What to do on Valentines day in Phuket
In Phuket for Valentine’s Day and don’t know what to do. Well, don’t you worry as in this blog we will act like Cupid and give you a few different ideas of what you can do when you are in Phuket on Valentine’s Day.
But first:
What is Valentine’s Day?
The history of Valentine’s Day is a tale of legends, traditions, and the celebration of love that has evolved over centuries. While the exact origins of Valentine’s Day remain somewhat murky, the holiday’s roots can be traced back to ancient Rome and early Christian traditions.
History of Valentine’s Day:
St. Valentine: The identity of St. Valentine is a subject of debate, as there were multiple martyrs named Valentine who lived during the same time period. One popular theory is that Valentine was a Roman priest who defied Emperor Claudius II’s decree banning marriage for young men, as Claudius believed that single men made better soldiers. Valentine continued to perform marriages in secret, leading to his eventual martyrdom.
Over time, Valentine’s Day became associated with romantic love and affection. The connection between St. Valentine and love likely began during the Middle Ages, with the rise of courtly love traditions in Europe. By the 14th century, Valentine’s Day had become a popular holiday celebrated with the exchange of love notes, gifts, and tokens of affection.
While the history of Valentine’s Day may be complex and shrouded in myth, its enduring legacy as a day to celebrate love and affection continues to resonate with people across the globe.
Where to go for Valentine’s in Phuket?
