This time, I went to the Maeklong Railway Market on a tour with the travel booking site "Klook".

Maeklong Railway Market is a place that Nampla, a railway enthusiast, has always wanted to visit.
Maeklong Station is a terminal station located right next to the large river, Maeklong River. Here, you can see the rare sight of a market on top of the railway tracks. Many people may have seen photos on Instagram or guidebooks, and a lot of tourists gather here to see the scene.
Although the market still has fresh food lined up for locals to buy, trains run through it, making for a thrilling sight! Local people quickly tidy up their shops with practiced hands, which is also surprising to see.
The colorful train running through this market is a diesel railcar made in Japan! It was an old type of railcar called "Kiha 47". It's heartwarming to see that a train from Japan is still active in a country so far away.
This is a recommended place for those who want to experience a typical Thai tourist spot or for those who love trains. If you're going to Bangkok, be sure to check it out.

Good Points of this Tour
You can visit both Maeklong Railway Market and Amphawa Floating Market in one day.
The guide tells you about the local area on the bus.
There is plenty of free time (free time at the destination).
You can gather and disperse in the center of Bangkok, "Siam".
It's difficult to go by rental car or taxi, and it's also difficult to go by local bus, so we recommend going on a tour! If you're interested, please book from the link above.
