Siam Niramit Journey to the Enchanted Kingdom of Siam

The fascinating journey of Thai culture  is not just spectacular but truly entertaining. The Siam Niramit show, adjacent to the Thai National Cultural Center, on Rachadapisek Road. The Siam Niramit show is segmented into journey motifs-into the land of religion, culture and the consciousness of life after death. The concept that their offering in this show is full of excitement and magnificence. The ways they combine  technologies in creating the effects are mostly surprising. At a glance it reminded me of the performance of The Legend of Kungfu Show at Red Theater in Beijing, China.  Comparing the both shows, from the story side, I've better like the one that they perform in Kungfu Show rather than in Siam Niramit. Perhaps it might be just because most  the Thai culture especially about their daily life is nearly same with what we have in Indonesia as we are in the same region in Southeast Asian and  most of the countries have similarity in culture. Far more I also found the similarities when they performed  the judgment in the Hell in Buddhist perspective with the ones that we have  in Islam perspective. However, the whole scenes in the show are entertaining and wonderful. Don't miss it when visiting this country to spend time  relaxation instead of going  to Thai massage. The ticket for this show is around 1400-1500 Bhat (depend on the agent) and if including dinner it is around 1700-1800 Bhat. Cheers and enjoying your time in Bangkok, the fascinating city.
