Wongwian Talat Namphu, locally known as "Wongwian Ha Yaek" (Five-Way Roundabout), is considered the most important business and commercial center of Chanthaburi city. The area surrounding the roundabout is home to the Chanthaburi Municipal Fresh Market (Talat Sod), which is filled with fresh produce, fruits, and various sundry goods. It is a source of delicious and inexpensive food, available from early morning until late evening. Especially in the evening, numerous stalls and vendors open up, selling a wide array of sweet and savory dishes. The lively and friendly atmosphere makes the Fountain Roundabout a place that truly reflects the authentic traditional way of life of the people of Chanthaburi.

In addition to its role as a fresh market, the Fountain Market Roundabout is also a connecting point to other significant landmarks in the city, situated not far from the Chanthaboon Riverside Old Town and the King Taksin the Great Monument. On Sunday nights, the area hosts a Walking Street (Thanon Khon Dern) where tourists can browse and purchase new and second-hand goods at affordable prices. Visiting the Fountain Roundabout offers a complete experience, encompassing shopping, tasting local cuisine, and soaking in the charming, bustling city life.
