Our first stop in Udon Thani will blow your mind away, let the photos speak the words.

The Sea of Red Lotus

Amazed by amount of Lotus in this lake, there are a few types of lotus you can see here and you even can pluck the lotus seed to eat freshly!

I was told that the flower blooming season is on December to February, I guess during that season, you will be more amazed by the scenery here!
