Grab a lychee smoothie and a lavender rose tea blend at Floral Cafe. The shaded terrace is perfect for cooling down before the heat of the day peaks.
17:39
Walk through the garden of the Princess Mother Memorial Park. The grounds are open until 18:00, so you have plenty of time to explore the exhibition halls and the full-scale model of the old house before the light changes.
18:09
Stand in the garden as the sun sets toward the WSW. The golden light reflects off the river, casting a warm glow on the historic buildings.
18:54
Stroll down to Pak Khlong Talat, the wholesale flower market. It is open 24/7, so the night shift is in full swing with colorful bouquets and the scent of fresh jasmine.
