Timeline
10:00
Sip a latte and eat a brownie at Floral Cafe. The space is filled with flowers and branches, offering a calm start to your visit.
10:15
Walk next door to the Guru Tawan Sikh Temple. Take off your shoes before entering the main room on the fourth floor to see the white six-storey building and its large golden dome.
10:40
Explore Phahurat Market. It is a fabrics market on steroids, carefully hidden behind other stores. You will know you have arrived when you see the vast selection of textiles.
11:00
End your walk with seafood at Tang Jai Yoo. This open-air restaurant is famous for its Chinese Chaozhou-style dishes, particularly the roast specialties.
Local tip
Check opening hours before you go. Floral Cafe is open 10:00-22:00, Guru Tawan Sikh Temple is open 10:00-18:00, Phahurat Market closes at 18:00, and Tang Jai Yoo is open 11:00-14:00 and 16:30-22:00. Since you start at 10:00, you have time for the cafe and temple before the seafood lunch slot opens, or you can wait for the 16:30 slot. If you prefer lunch earlier, consider the Old Siam Plaza Food Court (10:00-21:00) or Royal India Restaurant (10:00-22:00) as alternatives near the temple.
