A cup of drip coffee to slow down your busy day
Slow down your busy day with a cup of delicious drip coffee at Brewlab, a slow bar coffee shop located in a Japanese-style pine wood house in Rama 9 district. This stylish Japanese-style pine wood house is a hidden gem for coffee lovers, especially for those who enjoy drip coffee. With that, Brewlab feels like a living room where you can relax and slow down your life. Here, we are served hand-dripped coffee with care and attention, so it is no surprise that we can savour the special taste of coffee slowly and appreciate the barista’s efforts.

The Artist’s House Bang Luang: A heaven for art and relaxation
Located in the historic Bang Luang community of Bangkok’s Thonburi district, The Artist’s House Bang Luang was once the residence of the esteemed Raksasawat goldsmithing family, tracing its lineage to the Ayutthaya era. Today, under new ownership, this enchanting space has evolved into an art lover’s haven. The house features a blend of traditional Thai architecture and modern interior design and houses a gallery, workshop, and a cosy café. For a serene weekend escape, consider a scenic canal boat ride followed by a visit to the Artist’s House Bang Luang to unwind, sip tea, savour snacks, and unleash your creativity.

A must-visit temple in Bangkok: Wat Saket Ratchawora Mahawihan
Wat Saket Ratchawora Mahawihan, also known as The Golden Mount, is a historic temple in Bangkok that is a popular tourist destination. The temple was built in the Ayutthaya period and was later renovated in the Rattanakosin period by King Rama I. The temple is home to a large Buddha statue and a beautiful mural painting in the main hall and it is also a great place to enjoy the panoramic views of Bangkok. I recommend visiting the temple in the evening to catch the sunset and take photos of the stunning cityscape.
