A Day Trip to Maeklong Railway Market and Ancient Temples

Arrive at Maeklong Railway Market and explore the food stalls. This market is unique as vendors set up their stalls right next to the railway tracks. The market resembles a weekend market, with various shops selling fresh seafood, seasonal produce, local souvenirs, and imported goods. The train passes through the market at scheduled times: 06:20, 09:00, 11:30, and 15:30. The market's signature 'umbrella closing' moment lasts no more than 5 minutes. Afterward, visit Wat Phet Samut Worawihan (Wat Luang Pho Wat Ban Laem). Next, head to Wat Intharam, an ancient and serene temple with a 300-year-old Buddha statue. A must-visit for those in Amphawa. Finally, visit Wat Bang Kung, another ancient temple. It houses the revered Luang Pho Nilmanee Buddha statue in the Bot Prok Pho (Bodhi Tree-covered Chapel). Photography inside the chapel is not allowed.
