Thailand's markets don't just sell food, they're built around it. At Maeklong Railway Market outside Bangkok, vendors set up shop along active train tracks, packing up their stalls eight times a day when the train comes through, then rebuilding within minutes. An hour away on the Mae Klong river, the Amphawa floating market has run for centuries the same way, with boats gliding up to diners to serve fresh seafood and traditional Thai dishes straight from the water. Together, they're two sides of the same market culture: one shaped by a train line, the other by a canal, and both centered on food. This is a Thailand market tour unlike any other, where getting your next meal means dodging a train or flagging down a boat. - Sit Down for a Meal in Thailand’s Floating Markets - Watch a Train Run Through Thailand’s Most Dangerous Market #thailand #thailandmarket #foodanddrink Got a story idea for us?
