Foreigners sit down at Thai funeral thinking it's a street food place.

Foreign tourists in southern Thailand, who were looking for a place to sit and have some refreshment, walked into a tented area near a night market where a funeral was being held, thinking that it was an eatery.



After being told that it was a place where a funeral was held, they appeared shocked and apologised, before politely asking if they could stay.



The hosts agreed and went on to offer them food and drinks, including Thai iced tea and traditional pastries.



A video of this incident, which happened in the Khanom district of Nakhon Si Thammarat province.



It was first posted on Facebook by Mr Charantorn Chareomkiad, a family member of the deceased.



In the clip, two Caucasian men are seen seated at a table prepared for funeral guests, while a Thai woman serves them drinking water.



Mr Charantorn, who filmed the scene, can be heard joking in the background: “Hey, let’s ask them. Are they thinking that this is a buffet?”



He then laughed and allowed his family members to continue serving food to the unsuspecting tourists.
