The Maeklong Railway Market operates directly on an active railway track. The market sells a diverse range of goods from fresh produce to clothing and maintains a vibrant atmosphere. When a train approaches, vendors swiftly retract their sun shelter and clear goods from the tracks, with business resuming as usual once the train passes. The transformation of the market before a train's arrival and its swift return to normalcy afterwards make it a popular tourist attraction.

Damnoen Saduak Floating Market is located 100 kilometers southwest of Bangkok. It is Thailand's most popular floating market known for its vibrant scenes of vendors on boats selling produce. The market originated from a 32-kilometer canal built between 1866 and 1868 with the traditional floating market culture. Revived as a tourist spot in 1971 the modern market comprises three smaller markets and remains active daily from morning to noon.
