It is quite eye-catching as soon as you get on the escalator. The atmosphere inside the store is very nice and relaxing, but the air-conditioning is very cold. The massage was very comfortable, and there was delicious mango sticky rice after the massage, which was very cost-effective.

The meeting point is easy to find and the itinerary is clearly explained. The zoo has its own characteristics (giraffes), the show is good, it is worth a visit! The disadvantage is that the zoo prohibits visitors from bringing food in, and semi-forces visitors to buy food at high prices. And there are too many self-funded projects!

This is my second consecutive visit, and it truly is one of my favorite spas in Bangkok. I had two strong cups of coffee before my treatment, but it was so relaxing that I ended up falling asleep, that’s how good they are! Afterward, I told my husband that I could easily live in Thailand for experiences like this. They use Jurlique products, which I'm familiar with, so I wasn't worried about allergies. I just wish I had brought cash to tip the massage therapist—she was incredibly nice, kind, and skilled!

good. Very good. In the event that the same household purchases different styles from the same store, there will be no reward for the second review. So it doesn’t matter whether you write it or not.

The show was scheduled to start at 5 o'clock, but my chartered car was late from the airport. I went to the hotel to check in first and then rushed to the door. I was 10 minutes late, but fortunately I was able to enter. The show was wonderful. I booked VIP seats and sat in the front. I could interact with the dancers. It was very interesting.
