Thailand's hidden gems | 6 green train travel routes 🚂🌿

There are various modes of transportation for traveling in Thailand, but my personal preference must be the slow, non-air-conditioned, "green train" with open windows. The healing scenery passing by outside the window, the slow-paced life, the super high cost-effectiveness, and the romantic journey to experience fireworks. The following 6 train travel routes will unlock a different Thailand: Bangkok → Kanchanaburi Kanchanaburi, a small border town in western Thailand, has unique natural and cultural features. Passing the famous Thai-Burma Railway, Kanchanaburi Province, the Bridge on the River Kwai, the Death Railway Krasae Bridge, Nam Tok Waterfall... The journey takes 2-5 hours and costs 100 baht. There are two trains starting and ending at Bangkok Thonburi Station at 7:55 am and 1:10 pm. There are also special sightseeing trains running to and from Bangkok Hua Lamphong Station on weekends. Bangkok → Ayutthaya Ayutthaya, the former capital of Siam, is rich in history and culture. There are many world heritage sites, such as the Buddha embraced by a tree, the Golden Mountain Temple, and the Khmer pagoda. All trains from Bangkok to the north pass through Ayutthaya, and there are many trains. The whole journey takes 1.5 hours and costs 15 baht. It is available at Hua Lamphong Station and Bang Suk Station in Bangkok. Bangkok → Mae Khun Railway Market Meigong Railway, famous for its train market, has a history of more than 100 years. The train whizzed through the market, with a strong local flavor. Travel tips🚃: First take the bus from Wongwai Yai Station in Bangkok to Maha Chai in Samut Sakhon, then cross the market and take the ferry to Ban Laem Station on the other side of the river. The last stop is Mae Kung Market, which is better near the door📷. After getting off the train, you can enter the market and wait, take pictures of the train passing through the market, and on weekends you can also visit the nearby Amphawa Floating Market. Bangkok → Pattaya Departs from Hua Lamphong Station in Bangkok at 6:55 and returns from Pattaya to Bangkok at 14:20. The train passes through Bangkok CBD and passes near Suvarnabhumi Airport. The whole journey takes 4 hours and only costs 31 baht, which is the best choice if you are not in a hurry. Bangkok → Hua Hin You can see the scenery of Phra Pathom Pagoda and Hua Hin, the "most beautiful railway station in Thailand". Bangkok Hua Lamphong, Bang Suk Station and Thonburi can all be reached by train. The whole journey takes 5-6 hours, and who knows the joy of 44 baht! Chiang Mai → Lamphun/Lampang Lamphun/Lampang, a small and unpopular town in northern Thailand, has a very pleasant citywalk. The train departing from Chiang Mai can reach here. The scenery along the way is very beautiful, passing through the Khun Dan Tunnel, the longest railway tunnel in Thailand. Chiang Mai→Lamphun, the journey takes 0.5 hours, and the return train ride only costs 5 baht! Chiang Mai → Lampang, 2.5 hours drive, 27 THB. #Thailand #ThailandHotel #ThailandTravel
