Bangkok Small-Group Damnoen Floating Market Tour & Railway Market

Overview

Start your day with Maeklong Railway Market, also known as Talad Rom Hub or the Umbrella Pulldown Market.

When train operations allow, watch the famous moment as vendors quickly move their stalls and awnings so the train can pass through the market.
