This trip starts when we arrive at Pak Khlong Talat or Bangkok Flower Market. Believe it or not, this is the biggest flower market in Thailand which is open 24/7! We'll spend some time here looking around the flower market, and we'll buy some jasmine or lotus for our workshop.
Once we've got our flowers, we'll head to the workshop to make classic Thai flower garlands! I'll guide you closely and personally on the steps of making a beautiful flower garland. We'll take around 2-3 hours here.
14:00
After finishing crafting garlands at the workshop, we'll walk to Wat Pho or the Temple of the Reclining Buddha to offer the garlands we've just made to the Reclining Buddha. Furthermore, we'll also learn the story behind the Thai traditional massage, since Wat Pho is the very place where the traditional Thai massage was born!
