Lopburi province is home to the biggest sunflower fields of Thailand. Thousands of acres are filled with this beautiful bright yellow flower, that is in blossom between November and January. The largest field is located in Phattana Nikom district, a little over 40 kilometers East of the provincial capital. Although a beautiful sight that has become a tourist attraction, the sunflowers are grown to produce sunflower oil used for cooking and for their seeds, that are eaten as a snack
