[/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.5.6″]A Brief History Of Thai Massage:
In December 2019, the traditional Thai massage was added by UNESCO to its Cultural Heritage of Humanity list. It is said that the founder of Thai massage and medicine was Chiwaka Komaraphat, who was Buddha’s physician over 2,500 years ago. He possessed extraordinary medical skills and knowledge of herbal medicine. Though it is suggested there’s a single founder, the history of Thai massage is quite complex integrating a combination of Indian, Chinese, and Southeast Asian cultural influences into its practice. Still to this day, there’s a wide variety in Thai massages across regions in Thailand that there’s no single routine or framework that is universally practiced. -Source: Wikipedia

[/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.5.6″ _module_preset=”default”]-Faster to travel through the notorious traffic of Bangkok especially during pivotal peak times of traffic in this city.
-Cost efficient, lower costs on gas. For just 1 month alone can cost only 300 baht! No car can compete with that!
-Some Thai girls (or guys) love those who drive motorbikes, but depends on the bike (recommend getting a big one or classic one), enough said.

[/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.5.6″ _module_preset=”default”]-Bad for accidents because they don’t have the same protection as a car does; thus, you are more vulnerable. Also, it’s easier to get into an accident on a motorbike because of control, speed, and other drivers around you especially cars and trucks.
-Can be more difficult to learn and master for some who haven’t had previous experience driving a motorbike especially in a city like Bangkok where the driving culture is likely different from other cities or places.
