About Wichit Subdistrict
Wichit (วิชิต), also written Vichit, is a subdistrict of Mueang Phuket. The municipality describes a landscape between hills and sea: lower ground supports residential communities, hill land is used for agriculture and coastal areas include aquaculture.
The local authority records Rangaeng as the tambon's former name. This administrative destination covers varied neighbourhoods rather than one town centre or coastal attraction. A specific address or named locality is useful when travelling across Wichit, because the retained reference point represents the whole tambon rather than a municipal office, beach access or individual accommodation.
