Nestled within a picturesque mountain range stands a wooden building surrounded by rice fields. My trusted Yamaha motorbike brought me to the north mountains, but this floral-lined walkway enchanted me. Rice holds immense cultural and economic significance in Thailand, being a staple food in the country and playing a vital role in shaping its agricultural traditions and way of life. The sight of the wooden building in the rice field serves as a fierce reminder of the deep-rooted connection between the Thai people and the land they cultivate.
