Hello everyone! In this video, we will take you on a tour of the world-famous Maeklong Railway Market, a unique market located in Samut Songkhram, Thailand. This market is renowned for its unique location - right on the railway tracks!
Our journey begins with the vibrant stalls packed with a wide array of goods, from fresh fruits and vegetables, seafood, spices, to local Thai specialties. Watch as sellers and buyers haggle over prices in this bustling market, adding to the charm and authenticity of the local shopping experience.
But the real highlight of the Maeklong Railway Market is the coming and going of the train. Multiple times a day, a warning bell signals the arrival of the train. Watch as vendors quickly pack up their goods and retract their awnings just in time for the train to pass through the market, only to set up again once it's gone.
This incredible spectacle gives the market its alternate name, the 'Umbrella Pulldown Market.' It's a fascinating glimpse into how everyday life seamlessly intertwines with the workings of the railway.
