Any color that matches with pink is super suitable, such as light blue, white, silver, light gold.
A flowing long skirt will add more beauty~

The Erawan Museum
Meticulous architecture structure and design, the wall & floor textures and patterns are really complex but all are matching with each other's. Although it's a temple but the color that shown romantic, suitable for couple to visit, I love it so much.
Other that that, the food stall there are delicious for me (everyone has different tasted), the price are between 50~100 depends what food you order.
