The Dome
The Dome means “dome” in English, and it is very exact word to describe the appearance of the sauna. Holds her 64 year old American Dave, who built it himself. At this moment 2 domes are made (one is bigger, the second is smaller) and they cost them the very corner of a large open space lined with carpets on which are low tables. This is where the people lie evenings with pillows and drinks. And closer to the rocky wall, carved next to the hearth is always a supply of firewood, built made of bamboo and not the most expensive material, so that, getting here during the day you see all these details and get an impression country hinterland.
But the main tsimes in The Dome can be tasted only in the evening. If you google information about this sauna in Phangan, then pay note that ninety-nine percent of the shots are taken in the dark – like mine. Indeed, in the dark place acquires a special charm, due to that everything is lit by a fire, candles on the tables and electric sleeves. Don’t tell me how much even one ordinary candle changes the perception of the world in the dark, and here – everywhere flames and lights. The level of comfort and charm in The Dome on Phangan rolls over.
But that is not all. Lovers of herbal teas and raw food snacks will taste what is offered by the hosts in “menu”. It is quite small, but I was just in awe of chocolate balls-cake. Something like snickers, only light and airy. The fact that raw, somehow I did not care, although it is somehow more pleasant to eat sweets, knowing that they are all like themselves healthy 
Entry from the road
The whole space is carpeted.
Separately, you need to tell about the dome. Firstly, they are very wet, you sit all wet after a few minutes. That is, by in fact, it is closer to the bath than to the modern dry sauna. Although once long time ago, and saunas were also wet. Temperature is also not inside very large (as in the baths), but I personally love just when not too heated. But in English, the institution sounds exactly like sauna. And you know, you still have to go to the dome when it is well it’s going to catch this time, otherwise it’s too “cool” will be.
The second feature is acoustics. Yes, maybe someone is will seem silly (at first I didn’t really feel myself comfortable), but inside it’s just awesome to buzz “A-A-A-A-A”, that is, poizuvat guttural or just low sounds. Very unusual and cool feeling, I cast a spell. And not alone, but for you to be a few people, and cool if there are voices of different keys, for example, male and female. The main thing that your colleagues in the dome there were some of them too, and did not hesitate to sound.
