30 min

09:15/14:15 Hours :- Flower Market

Lets have a floral welcome upon arriving at Flower Market to start our Morning or Afternoon small group experience.

Bangkok’s bustling 24-hour flower market is a feast for the eyes and the nostrils—and one of the best places for jet-lagged travelers awake at odd hours to do some sightseeing. The 2016 government cleanup that forced flower vendors off the sidewalks and into a covered area took away some of the market’s excitement, but it still remains a top spot for late-night tourism, with its ice-packed crates of orchids, roses, and lotus blooms that arrive from upcountry. You will have a chance to try lotus flower folding while in here.
