Why should you go there and how do you do it right?

Come for the swing! This four-person contraption spins you almost in a circle, costs 20 to 25 baht per person, and is what people talk about long after they've forgotten everything else. Around it is a small Yunnan Chinese settlement with stalls for archery and air rifle shooting, mostly costing under 100 baht, and racks of traditional costumes for rent for photos (around 100 baht per person).

Be aware of what to expect here. It's a tourist destination, not a vibrant heritage village. Anyone expecting profound cultural insights will be disappointed within ten minutes. Instead, spend a relaxing, inexpensive, and enjoyable hour or two. Try the green tea, some of which is free, and buy the roasted peanuts that reviewers rave about. There are also food and snacks available at the stalls if you'd like to stay longer.

There are also quiet periods, and to be honest, an almost deserted village is the more pleasant version of that.
