There is a store in the 1st district where we are staying, and the menu, the appearance and interior of the store, and the menu are good, and I found out that I could buy a voucher for a discount with a promotion, so I made a reservation. The actual food was delicious, especially the Vietnamese coconut milk coffee, which became my favorite.

As I was nearing the end of my trip, I decided to treat myself to a little luxury and booked a hotel buffet. There was a promotion going on so I was lucky enough to get a half price reservation, but as you would expect from a hotel buffet, the space was great, and the food, music, and hospitality of the staff were all top-notch. I was happy to be able to eat kimchi for the first time in a while! And not only was the food great, but the dessert section was large and everything looked delicious, so it was very difficult to choose. Although there was a time limit, it was a very satisfying experience.

As my stay got longer and I ran out of things to do at night, I decided to buy tickets. It was a great decision! I was able to see the main spots of the city while feeling the breeze, and the lights were on, so it looked different from the daytime, and I was able to see the lively nightlife of the people, so I was very satisfied.

This spa is tucked away in an alley off the main road. When I opened the door, the cute interior was just like the photos I saw on Klook, and I was even more excited. Before the treatment, we were given a simple questionnaire to let us know how we felt. At this time, we chose our favorite scent from the three types of oil, changed into our massage clothes, and headed to the massage room. We could also choose the brightness of the lighting in the room, and we chose dark, so as the treatment progressed, I relaxed and fell asleep. After the treatment, my body was clearly lighter, so I really recommend this place.
