Bangkok's Husky Cafe – A Must-See for Dog Lovers
狗狗控一生推:曼谷哈士奇咖啡馆
If you're a dog lover visiting Bangkok, you simply must stop by the True Love Café, a wonderful place where you can get a taste of Thai cuisine, or enjoy some refreshments in the company of dozens of adorable huskies.
如果你也是个狗狗控,又恰好去泰国旅游,可千万别忘了到“真爱咖啡馆”坐坐。因为,在这个神奇的咖啡馆中,你不仅能尝到地道的泰国美食,还能在几十条呆萌的哈士奇陪伴下享受茶点。
The True Love Café opened in 2013, when Chotiros Ratanabirabongse, Paw for short, a long-time husky breeder, decided to convert his farm into a place where people could interact and learn more about this wonderful canine breed. The place instantly became a hit with tourists, and today it is one of Bangkok's most popular attractions.
“真爱咖啡馆”在2013年开业,店主Paw之前是资深哈士奇饲养员。某天,他突然决定把自己的畜牧场改成一个人们可以了解和与哈士奇互动的地方。谁曾想,刚改造完毕,这地方就变成旅游胜地,也成了曼谷最受欢迎的景点之一。
To be able to meet the 25 huskies of True Love Café, patrons must pay a fee of 350 baht ($10) per hour, which also includes a free cake and drink. The doggies get 5 different play times every day, 3 of which (12:30pm, 3:30pm and 6:30pm) are open to human visitors. But before you get to enter their caged areas to play with them and pet them, there's a strict protocol that you have to follow. Patrons must wash and disinfect their hands, put on plastic foot coverings and watch an etiquette video explaining various rules that need to be followed when interacting with the dogs.
游客支付350泰铢(约10美元)/小时的费用,才能一睹咖啡馆里25条哈士奇的风采,当然茶点是免费的。狗狗们每天有5个不同的游戏时间,其中3个时段(中午12:30, 下午和下午6:30)对游客开放。但在你进入笼区跟它们玩乐之前,必须遵守严格的协议。不但得洗手消毒、带上塑料脚套,还要观看视频。视频中会教你跟狗狗互动时需要注意的各种规章制度。
This charming True Love Café is home to 25 gorgeous huskies, 2 Australian Shepherds, 1 Japanese Akita and 1 little Shih Tzu. They are all very friendly with humans, and love nothing more than posing for selfies and being petted.
“真爱咖啡馆”一共有25条哈士奇、2条澳大利亚牧羊犬、1条日本秋田犬和1条西施犬。它们都与人类相当亲近,最爱配合自拍摆姿势和享受爱抚了。
True Love Cafe is the world's first and only husky cafe, but certainly not the only animal cafe. Japan is famous for its cat cafes, reptile cafes and even owl cafes, and South Korea has its own dog cafe, as well as a sheep cafe, among others. It seems that whatever animals you're into, there's bound to be a cafe you can interact with them at.
“真爱咖啡馆”是世界上第一家也是唯一一家哈士奇主题咖啡馆,但不是唯一的动物主题咖啡馆。日本有著名的猫咪、爬行动物,甚至猫头鹰主题咖啡馆;韩国也有狗狗和小羊主题咖啡馆。这么看来,不管你中意何种动物,总有一家咖啡馆适合你!
