Description
Mae Klong Railway Market, where a train cuts through the bustling market. Dating back to 1905
After meeting your local guide and driving out of central Bangkok, your tour begins at the extraordinary Mae Klong Railway Market, where a train cuts through the bustling market. Dating back to 1905, this market showcases the resilient spirit of its fishing community despite the railway tracks running through it.
Next, we’ll explore Wat Bang Kung, renowned for its chapel nestled within the roots of a majestic banyan tree. Step inside to pay homage to the Buddha image, surrounded by the tree’s awe-inspiring embrace.
Then, we’ll venture to Amphawa, a charming riverside market only open on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Experience its authentic atmosphere as wooden houses line the riverbanks, offering a glimpse into centuries-old trading traditions.
Indulge your taste buds with a wide array of local delicacies, from street food to fresh seafood, all cooked and sold from boats along the canal. Don’t miss the chance to embark on a boat trip along the canals, where you might even catch a glimpse of the mesmerizing fireflies that illuminate the night sky.
You’ll be dropped off back in central Bangkok in time to enjoy your evening in the city.
