The flower markets.

This market has every flower available under the hot Thai sun

The flower markets
Jakkrapet Road
China Town

The smell alone is worth coming for – a sweet, vibrant, colourful, assault on all the senses.  This 24-hour market is bustling at anytime of the day or night.  Flowers are an integral part of the Thai Buddhist’s daily life – the sheer volume of flowers being bought and sold is simply overwhelming.  Just absorb the atmosphere, take photos, or go on a massive floral shopping spree – they are sold at ridiculously cheap prices.
