Maeklong Railway Market (Talad Rom Hub)

Most Dangerous Market*, Maeklong Railway Market

If you ask the locals of Mae Klong about must-visit markets apart from the Amphawa floating market, they will all likely mention one place: Maeklong Railway Market (Talad Romhub). This market not only provides excitement but also offers a glimpse into the way of life of the Mae Klong people.

Things to do:

Rom Hub‘ translates to “closing umbrellas”, the name accurately describes the market’s unique location along the Ban Laem – Mae Klong railway line. As the train approaches the station, the merchants and vendors swiftly fold their umbrellas or awnings in perfect synchronization, creating a narrow passage for the train to pass by the shops. This extraordinary sight captivates tourists, offering an experience they won’t find anywhere else.

However, Rom Hub Market is not just about fascinating umbrellas and a train. It also captures the essence of connecting with the people of Mae Klong. You can indulge in a must-try noodle shop located right in front of the train station, pay homage to the temple of Luang Phor Wat Ban Laem, a sacred figure in the city, purchase fresh seafood from the market, or take a moment to savor Thai desserts made with local ingredients by neighboring vendors. Everything at Talad Rom Hub is simple yet heartwarming, providing you with an authentic experience every day.
