We came there with three kids and they were so excited about the water slides into the lake! It's not an aquapark there. But when the main attraction is the view, some small slides are enough. We also did some kayaking, which was fun for all of us.

The deck floor is too hot, so you barely can step on it with bare feet. Please bring your slippers with you. There were no amenities in the shower. So if you want to get a nice shower please bring it with you.

We had lunch in the restaurant there and it was really tasty. This place is very popular among the locals, but they have western food on their menu also. There is a possibility to rent a floating hut there for the night, but we didn't.
