Maeklong Railway Market (Rum Hup) - Great Day Trip From Bangkok - Samet Songkhram Thailand 2023

In Samet Songkhram, about an hour outside of Bangkok, is Maeklong Railway Market (Talet Rom Hup). The market is one of the largest produce and seafood markets in Thailand. In addition to fresh seafood and fruit the market is infamous for one small thing - a train runs right through it!

In 1995 the Maeklong Railway built a commuter railroad line right through the middle of a very popular market. Instead of moving the vendors just adapted to the situation and new conditions. They modified the market stalls and work around a train that passes through eight times a day, seven days a week.

It’s a great day trip out of the city and can be combined with stops at some of the temples or floating markets like Damnoen Saduk or Amphawa Floating Markets west of Bangkok.
