It took almost an hour and a half. It was well done. The scenes looked okay. I wish there were more rooms. There are still more scenes in the movie that I want to see.

It’s really cool to see an orthodox Muay Thai match in Thailand. The field control is very good at stimulating the atmosphere. The host also knows how to mobilize the audience. I like it very much.

This was my first time experiencing a cooking class. The place was just a short walk from the MRT station, and it was on a big street, so I didn't get lost. It was a weekday morning class, and I happened to be the only one there that day, but Teacher Juney said with a smile, "Today is a private lesson ♪", which helped me relax and take the class. We went to the market by tuk-tuk, where he carefully explained the spices and ingredients while shopping, and then returned to the classroom by tuk-tuk, where he explained the spices in an even easier to understand way. The school was simple and clean, with large windows and a very bright atmosphere that made it a comfortable place to spend time. The cooking process was also smooth and efficient. It was my first time making Thai food using raw herbs and spices, and it was very delicious, and completely different from the food I made using commercially available pastes. I'm glad I was taught by the very charming Teacher Juney!

It was much better than I imagined! It's easy to find the way from BTS Saphan Taksin Station to Sathorn Pier because there are a lot of tourists walking around. The boat to Asiatique is at the very back of the pier, and only one boat leaves every 30 minutes. There is no timetable, and it seems to leave when the boat comes, so it's better to go there with plenty of time. The food is delicious with a Japanese taste. Tea or coffee is free, but other drinks are expensive and expensive. The dancing is not very authentic, but it's enough to enjoy the atmosphere. After dinner, we left the restaurant and moved to the show stage. We were given a bottle of water or cola. The cabaret show was a masterpiece, gorgeous, and the production was powerful, and I was very satisfied. After the show, the cast members lined up at the exit and you could take photos for a fee. There were some tourists who seemed to be quite aggressively invited to take photos, so if you don't want to take photos, it's better to leave quickly. Asiatique was crowded with many people and was lively, and the scenery along the river on the way back was also very beautiful.

Picked up my card at centralwOrld and the redeem process was a breeze. Used it on the next day and it was so much easier than buying a single ticket. Highly recommended for those looking to travel using BTS.
