Take a slow train to the "most dangerous" market in the world

📍Maeklong Railway Market, Bangkok A market along the railway, where vendors have to put away their goods when the train passes by, and then put them back after the train passes by, 7-8 times a day, and so on. This spectacle also attracts people from all over the world to come and see this magical market. If you come to Maeklong Railway Market, it is recommended to take the train that passes through the market. When the train passes through the market, tourists from all over the world will stand on both sides of the track and greet the people on the train, which is a very healing experience. 🚂Transportation Guide The train that passes through the market every day is a slow train from Banlaem Station to Mae Klong Station, with several stops in between, but it is recommended to get on the train at Banlaem Station, which is relatively more convenient to get to from downtown Bangkok and is less likely to be full. There are 4 trains a day, and tickets can only be purchased at the station window half an hour in advance. The departure times are: 7:30 / 10:10 / 13:30 / 16:40 It is recommended to take the 13:30 train in the afternoon, as the 10:00 train is basically full of European and American tourists on day trips, and there is no place to sit, let alone take pictures on the train, don't ask me how I know. 🚂How to get to Banlaem Station? It is about 1 hour drive from downtown Bangkok, we took a cab directly, 600 baht, you can also choose to take a train + a boat from downtown, it will take longer, about 2.5 hours in total. 🚂Return transportation If you are not in a hurry, you can take the last train at 3:30 pm back to Banlaem, then take a boat to the other side and take a cab to the city.
