Durian. The shape of durian fruit is like the ancient weapon "mace", and you will be stabbed by it if you are not careful. The origin of its name is also related to the voyages of Zheng He, the three treasure eunuchs of my country's Ming Dynasty, to Southeast Asia. Durian is the best fruit and is known as the "King of Tropical Fruits". There was a folk proverb in Thailand: "When the durian comes out, the sarong falls off." This means that when durians are ripe and on the market, some girls would rather take off their skirts (sarongs) and sell them to have a full meal of durians. This shows how popular durian is among food addicts. Durian fruit trees are planted and displayed in this area.

Once upon a time, there lived an old king and a queen in a palace. The king loved her very much, but she didn't love the old king because he was old and ugly. The king was very sad.
The next day, the old king could only go to the mountain and ask an old man with magic. The old man said: "You go find 12 buckets of milk and a flower, and I will naturally let you and you." The queen fell in love with her!" The old king immediately ran back and ordered his ministers to collect 12 buckets of milk from the mountain opposite us.
At night, the old king thought: The milk was collected, but what to do with the flower? Isn't this a big announcement?
