Why is it called “The Folding Umbrella Train market”?
This popular market has been here for over 40 years, but as the locals started running out of space they just started setting up the food stalls, tables with wheels and umbrellas directly on the train tracks.
But it's still an active railway track!
Now the vendors must move their belongings and umbrellas away from the tracks as the train barrels forward, honking on its horn to warn people of its approach. This is why the market is now known as the “folding umbrella train market”.

🔅King Rama the 1st helped establish three villages to produce monks bowls. Today Ban Baat is the only one of those original three still producing alms bowls.In the Thai language ‘baat‘ is the word for a monk’s bowl and ‘ban‘ or ‘baan‘ is the name for a home or community.🔅“Baan Baat community” is an alms bowl producing community that conforms to the principles of Dharma and traditional disciplines. An alms bowl made here is done by hand, welded from 8 pieces of iron. The reason for having 8 is because the bowl is one of the 8 objects that the monk’s everyday use. Nowadays the stainless steel is permitted because easy to clean, but iron is truly authentic. 📍#baanbaat #monksalmsbowl #monksalmsbowls #touguidethailand #privatetourguidebkk #bangkoktourguide #tourguidebangkok #englishspeakingguidebangkok #tourinbangkok #whattodoinbangkok #thailandtour #tourguidebkk #tourguidethailand #thailandattractions #bangkokthailand #nokthaitour

Thai silk is produced from the cocoons and Thai silk worms.Thai silk has many unique characteristics, including a tightly-woven fabric, fine grain and lustrous colours that do not fade after washing. There are also many different traditional styles or designs that mark true Thai silk, including:🔅Mudmee – Known for its complex geometric patterns and often using two colours, mudmee is made using a weaving method called Silk threads are dyed prior to weaving so that the vertical warp provides the fabric’s colour while the horizontal weft provides the pattern.🔅Plain Weave – Plain weave silk uses uniform threads to produce an even, consistent and smooth finish. Often two colours are woven together to create a two-toned shine.🔅Dupion threads of varying thickness with knots or lumps are used for a more organic, textured finish.🔅Brocade – Brocade patterns are crafted using extra silk thread during the weaving process to produce an embossed or embroidered texture. This is the most complicated type of Thai silk to produce.♥️IG: @nokthaitour➡️www.nokthaitour.com➡️https://m.facebook.com/nokthaitour/#thaisilk #thaifabric #silkworm #thaisilkworm #mudmee #mudmeesilk #plainweave #plainweavesilk #dupionsilk #brocade #brocadesilk
