Lamai View Point is located on the southern outskirts of the village of Lamai, immediately after the MACRO hypermarket, on the same side, the roundabout roads. Once, at the dawn of evolution, a small Siva Tara waterfall and a number – a huge stone that its the silhouette looks very much like a slightly elongated heart. Waterfall I do not know how natural, but equipped below a dam that looks very beautiful. New landmark then named Valentine Stone in honor of the Holy Valentines, Valentines and hearts, you know, and the territory around the stone gradually began to put in order. Thais have it usually means a lot of cement, bright flower beds, a place to eat and have a drink, as well as a bunch of other architectural details that slowly replacing natural charm with banality commercial institution.

Viewpoint Lamai
The place is interesting, first of all, a beautiful view of Lamai from height of about a hundred meters, well, maybe a little more. Rise up along the pedestrian path, which is equipped with steps and walkways, for an unprepared person on foot we take a maximum of minutes ten. And if sports training allows, then climb on The observation deck will turn out in five minutes. By the way, this one of the easily accessible viewpoints on Samui, where you can easily climb with the children in the background.
Above the slope, at the end of the trail there is a decent cleft between two neighboring mountains, so they built a platform there for zip-line. The whole zip line is essentially two spans, which promise pleasure for ten minutes, including the time to go with one cable to another. Perhaps as a starting option for a newbie. will fit, but to those who have already visited the Canopy two-kilometer highway Adventures or roped on Tree Top Cable Ride, Lamaic spans seem unattractive. Later, after the people Little by little I began to visit Valentine Stone, the site was expanded and organized party viewpoint. Even later, it was completed a full bar, just below the zip-line site, held something there like a funicular on rails.
Near the entrance, downstairs, where parking is a fish spa, which included in the cost of attendance. It seems to me – a great option for those who have never tried to feed their feet to fish and doesn’t know those electric emotions that don’t give sit quietly and not laugh. On my arrival there were five tourists, but the fish were apparently well fed, because the behavior of people was it is clear that they gnawed on tourists extremely reluctantly. I myself am this I did not try to fish spa, because I already know fish I did not want to repeat the experience.

Honestly, I did not understand from which side I should look at the stone, so that it looks like a heart. Here, apparently, it all depends on the desire – how much you want to see in this shapeless piece exactly heart, not a portrait of Brezhnev in profile. You will have to run around with camera around the sights to catch the desired angle
