Location
2nd floor, Yodpiman Flower Market,116 Jakkapetch Rd. Bangkok 10200
Meeting Point
We are hidden away on the 2nd floor (mezzanine floor) of the main Yodpiman Flower Market building. This is the building between the main road and Yodpiman River Walk (the newer restaurant / shopping area by the river) and they will be selling a lot of flowers used for offerings. The easiest way to get to us is to take the river ferry and get off at Pak Klong Talad pier (pier N6/1). You can get the local orange flag ferry (15THB - runs from early morning) or the blue flag tourist ferry (40THB – first boat is 9am). If you are staying near a skytrain station you can get the Skytrain to Saphan Taksin and then the ferry.
When you get off the ferry you will be in Yodpiman River Walk and need to walk into the main flower market/ you can wait at Starbucks and we will come and pick you up. If you take a taxi (or Uber), please keep in mind that the traffic can be bad and it can take longer than expected.
If you take a taxi or need to ask someone for assistance you can also show this instructions in Thai.
ปากคลองตลาด จอดหน้าธนาคารธนชาติ, Bank Thanachart, and we can come and pick you up.
