    The puppet show is quite interesting. The venue is not big, but there is a separate terrace which is very nice and you can see the Twin Towers. The place is also a bit difficult to find. It is recommended to call the owner in advance to ask.

    I think it's quite fun. Facing the ocean, the roller coaster ride is fantastic. It's perfect for older children. There's also a science exhibition hall with lots of specimens. It's very convenient for bringing kids; you don't have to walk around; you can rent electric buggies. Hahaha.

    Logar Temple, a thousand-year-old temple floating on the sea. At high tide, it is like an island, with red walls and blue seas in pictures; at low tide, the reefs and the sound of the Sanskrit resonate with the sound of the waves. The ancient buildings of the carved beams and paintings hide the story of the years, the stone carvings of the twelve zodiacs are vividly conveyed, and the sea breeze is wrapped in Zen. Whether it is a photography enthusiast or a quiet person, you can feel the shock and tranquility of the "Haitian Buddha Kingdom" here.
