BKK 10 Amphawa floating market + Train market
BKK10 Half Day Amphawa floating market + Train market
*Available only Saturdays and Sundays
On the way to Amphawa floating market, a stop in Maeklong Railway Market (train market) will be made. What makes the market special is that it occupies part of a train line. A few times a day, and before the train runs through the market, vendors lower their umbrellas and move some of their produce away from the train tracks and as soon as the train passes, the vendors move their goods back onto the tracks and continue as normal (until the next train arrives).
Visit Amphawa floating market, not as large as Damnoen Saduak but more authentic, with visitors almost exclusively Thai. This once small village has been around since the mid-17th century. It has become such a magnet for Bangkokians during weekends that food stalls have grown from the riverbanks and stretched far into the surrounding streets. Take a boat to see the traditional way of selling and buying fruits, vegetables and other goods. Opportunity to buy and try some of the different kind of food that is being sold here.
