Maeklong Railway Market

The Maeklong Railway Market, also known as the Folding Umbrella Market, is a unique and fascinating place where vendors set up their stalls on both sides of a 100-meter stretch of train track. The market is known for its retractable umbrellas and awnings that extend right over the tracks, which are quickly folded up whenever a train approaches. The market sells a variety of goods, including fruits, vegetables, seafood, and meats, as well as prepared snacks. Visitors can walk up and down the line, taking photos and experiencing the excitement of the trains passing through the market. The market is a great place to visit with family and friends, offering a unique and memorable experience
