Turned our kids loose and felt safe letting them roam at night. Lots of shops and even an arcade and a famous wooden play park. Adventure rides like zip line and euro bingo jump tastefully added into existing fisher style village A lagoon meanders thru the village. Adults can frequent restaurants that turn “only over 21” at 10 pm

We came to visit the temple for the first time in October 2020. We arrived at 9:30 and all the food was ready to purchase but there was no line. Because of covid they have changed the way you order. Park near the Buddha and walk to the right around the building. It was very quick and efficient. You walk up to a lady at a booth and they have a paper sign with what you can order and prices. You pay her cash then step back and wait for them to call your name. We ordered 1$ Thai iced tea, pad Thai, pho soup, amazing fried rice. Fried chicken set which came with wok fried chicken, papaya salad and plain sticky rice. And 1 pork satay on a stick. We walked around the area where they were cooking and observed the different methods. People were kind and spoke to us. When we went to visit the statuary and person from the community was so friendly and answered any questions we had. So beautiful. Such a unique vibe. The monks come out and get food for the week from the community around 11 and do alms and songs.

This toll bridge on Hwy 293 and the toll road Hwy 293 are well worth the toll for the large time saving and not having to drive through all the traffic on Hwy 85/123 to get to Destin and Sandestin FL from I-10 at Crestview FL.
