A death-themed cafe opened in Bangkok, and it's really risking its life to make money

If there is a coffee shop with death as its theme, would you like to try it? There is indeed a coffee shop with death as its theme, it is Kid Mai Death Awareness Cafe in Bangkok.

Coffee is sweeping the world. In Thailand, a relatively leisurely country, it is very common for the younger generation to hang out in coffee shops. The birth of Kid Mai Death Awareness Cafe was born in this environment. On the floor of the cafe is written "No one knows which will come first, tomorrow or the next life".

The whole cafe is themed around death, with a gloomy and dark style. The word "death" is written on the wall in various languages. It gives people a terrifying and gloomy feeling. To enter the cafe, you must first pass through a long and narrow black tunnel, which looks like the tunnel of death in the legend. There are also signs with black background and white words on the walls on both sides of the corridor, with different slogans written in English and Thai, such as "What is your goal in life?" and "Is someone waiting for you?" These words with a slightly "torture" nature make the guests who pass by reflect on life.

However, the interesting thing is that the trees in the store are full of vitality, as if there is no obvious boundary between the metaphor of death and growth.

The store features four main desserts: “Born” represents birth, “Elder” represents old age, “Painful” represents illness, and “Death” represents death.

Thailand is a Buddhist country, and in this cafe, the profound principles of Buddhism will be run through throughout. The awareness of death is enough to make people realize the value of their lives, and when they realize this, greed and anger will naturally decrease a little.

This is a cafe where people can cherish life more by thinking about "death", and vitality and depression are fighting fiercely everywhere.

Since it is about death, the most important thing is of course the coffin. The store puts a Thai coffin in the most prominent position, and you can lie down in it if you are willing.

Would it be surprising if I said this is a coffin? But this is indeed a traditional Thai coffin, absolutely true!

CNN has also reported on this bizarre experience, but not all guests are brave enough to take off their shoes and climb into this Buddhist coffin. However, many of the cool people who have gone in have written suicide notes. However, there is another advantage of lying in a coffin, which is a 10% discount.

Only after sleeping in a coffin will you know what you want in life and understand that you can take nothing with you. It is best to have nothing to lose, so enjoy yourself while you can.
