The public was urged yesterday not to touch or pick the flowers around the late HRH Princess Galyani Vadhana's crematorium, because they should remain in full bloom until the end of this month.

"More people will visit the site. When taking photos near the flowers, please be careful not to harm them," said Pravit Boonmee, director for coordination and service with the agricultural landscape department of Doi Tung Development Project.

He has been taking care of the flowerbeds decorating the royal crematorium, which occupies part of Sanam Luang.

An exhibition in honour of the late Princess will be held there from tomorrow to November 30.

Members of the public are welcome to visit the area.

"After the exhibition ends, we will give flowers from the ceremonial ground to people," Pravit said.
