Thailand Trip Day 15

Day 15 – Day 16 : Today is a great day. I get acquaintance to 2 pretty tourists came from Chong Qing province of China whom have become teacher in exchange to Bangkok and Sukhodai  to teach Chinese for 1 year in Thailand local school. Taking chance of school holiday now, they are travel around to Chiang Mai, Pai, Koh Samui, Phuket, and then Singapore. It is most precious moment and memory for a backpacker knowing other backpacker in the journey, sharing same interest and difference experiences.

We go to famous Night Bazaar and Sunday Market together. These large scale night markets are really suitable for travelers to walk around and see this country culture based on the foods, local people, traditional clothes, handicraft, souvenirs, arts, wooden carving arts, and music dance performing. I think lady will definitely like here for all the clothes, bags, scarf, and souvenir stuffs. 3 hours is really too short for us to hang around at Sunday Market (start to close after 11pm).

Before going to Sunday Market, we are having our dinner at Chiang Mai largest hot pot venue at Sukhontha Buffet. It is the largest hot pot venue I ever seen, which occupies large space of area. It contains more than hundred of tables. In Chinese word, it is called thousand people buffet.

If you want to try different kinds of Thailand foods, come to Sukhontha Buffet. Sukhontha Buffet have every types of Thailand foods you look for, ranging from raw hot pot dishes, cooked Thailand foods ready to served, dim sum, drinks, fruits, cookies, salad, donut, and cakes. Their hot pot is a round dome hot pot with middle round dome shape used for grill and surrounded by narrow round hot water filled area used to boil dishes.

Sukhontha Buffet is really worth to try. It only charges 210 baht per person. Besides that, it has stage that performs the local music and some funny shows. It is really funny, really.

Chen Jun, Jian Li and Xiao Kui are the friend that I met and known in the journey of 3 months meditation and chanting. Although the time together is short, these are really precious friendship and will remain in my memory for long lasting. I wishes all the best to them and followed by peace, happiness, stay health and blessed in their life.
