From the mouth of the Mun River, we drive upriver along the Mun before we cross it.
After a short but heavy rain shower, we continue on a four-lane road to the Sirindhorn reservoir. Built in 1971, it serves for electricity generation and irrigation, as well as for recreation. On the water, we see large nets on floating bamboo platforms.
We circumnavigate Ubon Ratchathani and head west. Just before Sisaket, on the right side of the street, there is a huge building that could be a royal palace.

During the further journey, we experience a beautiful sunset, which dips the country in a golden light.
After dark, we reach Buriram. Although there is only weak ambient lighting, the city conveys a lively impression. As we drive past, we see a bustling market, but there are also many people shopping in the streets.
Then we reach our accommodation for the night, the Hotel Amari Buriram United. It is right next to the i-Mobile Stadium.
