Every morning, floral vendors from the various flower-growing alcoves of the Kingdom meet and entirely transform the atmosphere of the roadside of Pak Klong. Colorful posies of lily, jasmine, marigold, roses, orchids, chrysanthemums and daisies deck the stalls and pour out their aromas throughout the market area. In fact, the floral spread is truly soporific, with the breathtaking colors and fragrance of flowers spreading to large distances around the area.
Apart from multihued roses and chrysanthemums, the market also offers
many other blooms, typical of tropical climates. The best part is that
when you compare the rates by western standards, you will see that all
the flowers, including those grown in Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai, are
sold at quite tempting rates. In addition to the flowers, the market
also dedicates itself to a large variety of fresh vegetables, harvested
in some of the surrounding provinces.If you visit the market during daybreak, you can see boats and trucks laden with fresh flowers, vegetables and fruits stockpiling the day's supply. Most of the flowers are brought from the nearby provinces of Nakhot Prathom, Samut Sakon, Samut Songkran, Chiang Mai and Chaing Rai. Even though the place remains huddled with flower stalls throughout the day, the best time to visit it is during early morning or late at night. If you are in Bangkok, especially near Phahurat or Chinatown, do not miss a trip to this floral sanctuary.
