Introducing Udon Thani
Udon Thani has one foot on the highway and the other off the beaten track. The city boomed on the back of the Vietnam War, exploding into life as US air bases opened nearby. Today it’s become the region’s primary transport hub and commercial centre, and you have to dig deep behind its prosperous concrete veneer to find any flashes of its past. Because it lacks the urban chutzpah of Khon Kaen and the touristy appeal of Nong Khai, which is equally convenient for visiting wonderful surrounding attractions, Udon sees few travellers.
It might be of interest to you to read what some Udon Thani forum members think of Lonely Planet — both of the following two threads began in August, 2010. As you will see, the previously-quoted excerpt from Lonely Planet‘s website was revised as a result of the actions of one of the forum member.

Dancing Plant in Udon Thani, Thailand
Uploaded by egwg on Dec 18, 2007
“If you sing or talk to the plant in a high, gentle voice (saxophone or violin works even better), the smaller leaves will begin making subtle back-and-forth motions; sometimes quick, sometimes slow.” – Lonely Planet Thailand
OK, the video isn’t that great and the movement isn’t that noticeable but I think it’s still awesome. The movement is not from wind or sleight of hand.
The flowers have all been removed from the plant to prevent anyone from stealing them and breeding these flowers elsewhere. It is a hybrid of Codariocalyx Motorius Ohashi Leguminosae.
The plants are most active from November to February – the cool season – and between 7am and 10am or 4:40pm and 6pm. *Lonely Planet Thailand
