Travel by train from Bangkok, Thailand to Singapore.
The video is silent and without description. But I wrote video details in translated subtitles ,
If the subtitles are distracting, please turn off the CC button.
Overview
Bangkok, the capital of Thailand, is symbolic of its skyscrapers and golden temples. The journey began at Krung Thep Apiwat Station in the north of Bangkok.
I took the sleeper train Special Express No. 37, which covers the longest distance in Thailand in over 18 hours, to Su-ngai Kolok in Narathiwat Province, the southernmost province of Thailand.
I walked across the Thai-Malaysian border and visited Kota Bharu, a city on the eastern side of the Malay Peninsula.
I went to Tumpat railway station,, near Kota Bharu, to ride Malaysia's only sleeper train. and I experienced a 16-hour overnight train journey from Tumpat to Johor Bahru.
From Johor Bahru to Singapore, I enjoyed a 5-minute train ride to the Woodlands checkpoint in Singapore on the world's shortest cross-border railway.
I stayed on the sleeper train for two nights, and arrived in Singapore from Bangkok in a total of three days.
I made this video mainly to let you see the scenery and atmosphere in a highly realistic way, so that you can feel like you're traveling.
I also hope that it will be useful to those who are considering traveling along this route.
