About Train Travel to Ratchaburi

Ratchaburi has a fairly wide range of interesting places to visit, and is very popular with Thai visitors, particularly at the weekends. Ratchaburi is close enough to Bangkok for city residents to come to the town on day trips.

Floating Markets

Ratchaburi also receives huge numbers of foreign visitors, although nearly all of those foreign visitors come to see the two main floating markets in Ratchaburi: Damnoen Saduak Floating Market and Amphawa Floating Market. Damnoen Saduak Floating Market and Amphawa Floating Market are both worth visiting, however, they are very toutist oriented and high prices are charged for everything including boat tours, food and drink. For a cheaper and more low key experience of a floating market market in Ratchaburi we recommend trying Tha Kha Floating Market.
