About Mae Klong Railway Market
Maeklong Railway Market is a traditional Thai market selling fresh vegetables, food and fruit in the province of Samut Songkhram, southwest of Bangkok. What makes the market special is that it occupies part of a train line. A few times a day, a train runs directly through the market. A few minutes before the train comes, vendors lower their umbrellas and move some of their produce away from the train tracks.Address : Mae Klong, Mueang Samut Songkhram District, Samut Songkhram 75000, Thailand
