The Flower Market acts as a whole sale hub of distribution of flowers throughout Bangkok, but the vendors will sell you a handful of flowers if you ask. You can find most varieties of flowers there from across the world. A walk through the market and you will see Thais preparing arrangements in bulk getting ready for sale.

The pedestal is dedicated to the pleasures of the earth and beautifully decorated with stair cases leading to heaven:

As another interesting note: adjacent to the flower market is another wholesale market for fresh food where much of the fresh vegetables are bought by the restaurants in the Old Town area are bought and sold.
