Every night, late at night and early in the morning, there are varieties of fresh flowers delivered from all parts of Thailand here. The flower market looks like only flowers, but in fact it is full of things from the local area, such as vegetables, cooking ingredients, and seasonal Thai fruits. Then, every second here always looks busy.

After that, go for lunch.

After lunch, hop on a long-tail boat-dubed-“James Bond boat” because it got famous from the James Bond 007 movie “The Man with the Golden Gun,” in which some sections were filmed in Thailand.
