Čo robiť v Mae Ping River

Hlavným programom dnešného dňa bola návšteva Anantara Spa, kde som si objednal/a himalájsku terapeutickú masáž [90 minút]. Je to masáž s horúcimi kameňmi a esenciálnymi olejmi, ktorá využíva himalájsku kamennú soľ. V tom čase mal Klook 50% zľavu, inak by to stálo vyše päťtisíc na osobu. Maséri v tomto spa sú naozaj dobrí, masáž bola veľmi príjemná. Už pred dvoma rokmi, keď som tu bol/a, som si povedal/a, že sa sem chcem vrátiť. Používajú vyhrievanú kamennú soľ na masáž, ktorá je teplá (odborne sa tomu hovorí ďaleké infračervené žiarenie) a pomáha uvoľniť svaly. Celková intenzita masáže je pravdepodobne o niečo jemnejšia ako pri bežnej masáži s esenciálnymi olejmi. Na záver bola aj starostlivosť o tvár s použitím chladeného ružového kremeňa na gua sha (moja mama mi povedala, že odborný termín je „lifting tváre“). Po procedúre sme nevyužili ich odvoz späť do hotela, keďže bývame v Maradi a je to len päť minút chôdze.

The cruise was very slow (about 8km/hr) but gave nice time to see the sights. The Khao Soi at the rest stop was fantastic. We ended up taking the shuttle back because of a big rain storm that wouldn’t quit. nice that they offered that.

If you're visiting Chiang Mai, you should definitely try a Muay Thai class! It's a truly unique and exhilarating experience! I booked a group class on Klook a day in advance, thinking it would be less awkward with more people, but I still ended up making a fool of myself. The class started at 9 AM and finished at 10:30 AM, lasting a total of one and a half hours. For the first ten minutes or so, the head coach, Mark, led us through stretching, warm-ups, and jogging around the ring. The Thai coach spoke English, and everyone understood him. Since I was the only Chinese person there, my reactions were a bit slower than others, but I managed to get through the class despite some fumbling. After the warm-up, the head coach started wrapping our hands. After he wrapped one hand, he asked me how it felt. I said it was too tight, so he loosened it for me. But after he wrapped the other hand, I still felt it was too tight. He smiled helplessly and had to loosen that one too. I thought maybe the hand wraps for Muay Thai needed to be tight to protect the hands! But after the class, my hands were covered in marks, haha. Luckily, I didn't get injured. After wrapping our hands, the head coach had us put on gloves and started teaching us basic moves. After each move, he'd have us practice in pairs, repeating until we mastered the basics. My training partner was the assistant coach, "Ice." I often made mistakes because I was too nervous, like punching with my left hand and forgetting to guard with my right. He would tell me that if I didn't guard, someone would "bang" and hit me. Although the assistant coach also told me not to be nervous and just enjoy it, I always had that "good student" mindset, wanting to do my best, which just made me more flustered. In the end, I made the assistant coach laugh. He even started guarding when he should have been punching and punching when he should have been guarding. Seeing how nervous I was, he even jokingly threatened to hit me hard. I quickly waved my hands, "Nonono! You will hurt me! No!" He saw me frowning in fear and burst out laughing. Then we couldn't continue training; we were both bent over laughing. I guess that's my secret weapon in a fight! Making my opponent laugh until they're exhausted, and then winning without a fight. After a 90-minute trial class, I was completely exhausted. My hands hurt from the wraps, and my feet hurt from kicking. Even though I was hitting people, punching sandbags, and kicking tires, I was sore as if I had been beaten up. But it was so much fun and exhilarating! Life experience +1

The overall experience was good and fun. Teacher MAI was good and cheerful, and helped to take some good photos. All the dishes were delicious. It’s value for money and you can try many Thai dishes in-one-go.

My wife booked the one with Photographer and tuktuk so I booked this. Baan Orjao exceeded my expectations and we enjoyed it. The photos are beautiful. They let us choose the clothes. They assisted us and the photographer suggested a lot of poses for us.

Bolo to neuveriteľne zábavné. Bolo cítiť, že sprievodcovia sa dobre vyznajú v zvieratách a bezpečnosť mala najvyššiu prioritu. Skupina nebola príliš veľká a bola presne taká, aká mala byť. Všetko nám bolo veľmi dobre vysvetlené a odpovedali aj na otázky. Pomer ceny a výkonu bol tiež skvelý. Naozaj jedinečný zážitok, ktorý by mal každý aspoň raz zažiť.

Reserved via klook. Line and WhatsApp reserve available. Friendly service. Tea served before & after massage. Had Aroma massage 1H. had very pleasant experience. Happy and willing to come back again.

🐘 "Everything moves slowly, but my heart feels warm." The most healing elephant accompaniment experience! I never thought I would have the opportunity to walk through the forest with elephants at such close range. This experience was truly magical and unforgettable! ✨ Elephant Dream Project is a park that is not overly commercialized and even retains a somewhat raw, natural atmosphere. Here, you can deeply feel the staff's careful and attentive care for the elephant herd. The elephants look immensely relaxed and leisurely. Watching them eat slowly and walk slowly... everything is so unhurried. "No disturbing, no bathing, no hugging." We simply quietly accompany, feed, and observe these gentle giants. This is truly the best and most respectful way to interact with them. I sincerely and highly recommend this to anyone looking to experience a different side of Chiang Mai! ❤️

The portion size was too large; one person definitely couldn't finish it, it was enough for two! The curry and pad kra pao were delicious, and the fried pork skin was also good, with a nostalgic flavor. The performance was very unique, and at the end, they even set off fireworks outside! P.S. The dancers were so beautiful~~~
