This is a place that everyone should visit if they are in Thailand... very touristy but a unique experience, it's not every day you get to play with a tiger cub!
It's not just the experience of touching and playing with tigers, the temple is like a small safari park in itself, all types of wild animals walking freely around and if you have the balls to go up and touch... i'd leave the warthogs though, they are a little tempremental! Other animals include deer, buffalo, goats, chickens... etc...
The cueing is a bit of a pain in the backside for the big tigers but well worth it, we didn't end up paying the rip off price for special pictures with the tigers which was a call call in the end as it made no difference, i got all the pictures i needed! playign with the tiger cub was definately the highlight and what everyone should do!
In the evening got the bus back to Bangkok and had a good night of banter with the crew we spent New year with, a few beers and a game of pool in Soikumvith no 1 hostel, it was a staff members birthday so threre was a great buffet on offer! The pool games got a bit roudy as every nation had different 'international rules', the best rule of the night was when someone potted their last red and the black in the same shot and said that he had won because the red had gone in first... mmm! please!
