Young monks running around the street?
Good food with beautiful deco?
Lots of temples?
Or perhaps, a good traditional Thai massage?
Down Chomsin road (Soi Hua Hin 55) in Hua Hin, you will find this delicately furnished centre named Nicha.
Where to date gave me my best massage throughout my travels in Thailand, in terms of price and quality.
Now as far as I've come to understand about Hua Hin was that it's a town of expensive and luxurious relaxation. It's famous not only for its beach resorts, but also for its amazing spa experience.
So where else to look for your best massage other than here.
Upon arrival, we were given a coconut each as welcome drinks. Plus points for hospitality.
A massage menu would be given to you to place your order.
Typically, I went for a full-on 2 hour Traditional Thai Massage. At the price of RM50, it was really reasonable for such a modernly furnished centre.
If I ever have the chance again, I might try the Sauna Anti Cellulite Massage, hehe.
Uncle David from the group prefered to split his 2 hours into one hour of Thai Massage and the next for a nice Foot Massage. Smart.
If you've ever tried a thai massage in Thailand, I bet you agree that most of your typical massages includes full body pressing and bending like this.
At the end of the session, the masseur will sit you up and attempt to swing your upper body like this.
When I first moved to Thailand, I thought that was all in Thai Massage.
Well, until I came to Nicha.
In the 2 hours I was treated in the centre, I was bent in flabbergasting positions I never knew I was capable of achieving.
First I was bent in such way,
Then I was bent in such way,
hey that looks like my pants.
And then I was pulled in such position,
And this position,
And was pressed like this.
I know it seems like her legs was on my, eh hem.. but it wasn't ok
And finally, like this.
I'm beginning to feel like "bak chang" (wrapped dumpling).
But strangely, as painful as it appeared to be, it was actually very very relaxing. Her pressure wasn't too strong nor soft, but just nice when placed on my skin.
It was amazingly soothing.
And definitely consisted of the best techniques in a massage I've ever had.
Best two hours of my life.
