Sep 13, 2025
One of the must-see tourist attractions in Thailand, it has a unique characteristic because it is located on the railway. This market is located in Samut Songkhram Province, about 70 kilometers from Bangkok.
Characteristics of the Umbrella Market: Umbrella Market is located on the Maeklong Railway Line, where trains pass through the middle of the market several times a day. Vendors must quickly pack up their goods and fold their umbrellas when the train arrives. Once the train has passed, they will unfold their umbrellas and rearrange their shops.
Umbrella Market has a variety of products, from fresh vegetables, fruits, seafood, meat, to everyday items.
The experience of seeing the lifestyle and skill of the vendors who work quickly to pack up their goods when the train passes is an impressive and unique experience.
Trains usually pass through the market about 4 times a day, and the exact times may change. It is recommended to check the schedule before traveling to get the best experience.
