The second day of your Tour of Thailand and Bangkok continues today with a journey to the famous Rom Hub Railway Market (Folding Umbrella Market).

As the train approaches, merchants swiftly retract their umbrellas and move their stalls, creating a fascinating spectacle.

Next, visit the renowned Damnoen Saduak Floating Market, one of Thailand’s most iconic and photographed destinations. Enjoy an exciting longtail boat ride through scenic canals, passing traditional riverside communities and lush fruit plantations before arriving at the bustling market.

This vibrant market offers a wonderful glimpse into Thailand’s traditional way of life.

In the afternoon, discover two of Bangkok’s most celebrated landmarks: Wat Pho and the Grand Palace. Wat Pho, also known as the Temple of the Reclining Buddha, houses a magnificent 46-meter-long golden Buddha statue.
