Pak Khlong Talat (Flower Market) is near Memorial Bridge (Êþҹ¾Ø·¸)      during the weekend... this road always has a big jam... busy area... and lots of car parking         ¾Ç§ÃÒÅÑ (flowers festoon) is mostly used for paying respect to monks or elders or higher hierarchy... and also used in Thai traditional ceremony.   These Â¾Ã’¹¾Øèà or Pan-Pum (flower tray) are used for Thai religious ceremony, marriage ceremony, blessing ceremony and gratitude ceremony. Ã«Jasmin and Crown flower (or Calotropis giantea) used for flower festoon and tray are sold in Kilogram .... hand made, of course       ............................................................. this is Pak Khlong Talat's signature...
