    Mae Klong Railway Market – A market like no other, set along an active railway track. While it’s famous for the dramatic scene of vendors pulling back their stalls as the train passes, visiting in the evening offers a more tranquil and peaceful experience. With fewer crowds, you can fully appreciate the market’s unique setting, browse local goods at a relaxed pace, and take in the atmosphere of this one-of-a-kind marketplace.

    Wat Bang Kung is one of the most iconic attractions in the Amphawa district. The temple is famous for its roots and branches of the Banyan tree that locked the ordination hall housing the “Luang Por Nin Manee”, the golden buddha image dated back to the Ayutthaya period. In the 18th century, Wat Bang Kung is the gathering place of Thai heroic warriors so it houses many statues showing Thai boxing posture. This place is therefore a great photo-taking spot for foreign travelers.
