Travel Digest

Maeklong Railway Market is one of the most visited markets visited by tourist all around the world this market is also known as the Talad Rom Hub (“Rom Hub” literally means “Closed Umbrella”) set up along a active railway route it opens early morning until early evening. So why is this market so popular for tourist is because this is a working railway track , trains will pass by this railway track eight times a day a warning will come over the loud speakers set up along the railway track to let you know and security guards are also appointed along the track for every ones safety.

Nathon Town is a little run down and shabby but despite Ko Samui arguably being the most famous and popular holiday island in the world, retains a real feel of semi-rural Thailand that's missing from the tourist hotspots on the rest of the island. To be fair, in the last couple of years I have noticed a slight increase in the number of foreigners wandering around town and for the local traders and vendors, this is great news.

The landscape is breathtaking with her towers, needles, bridges and waterfalls, leders, stairways to the sky, lakes and cliffs. Mysterios is the history of the place: Nearby living People did not knovv much about the rock labyrinths in the Adrspach and Teplice vicinity for centuries. Local settlers only ventured to go there if they felt endangered in their homes as they could and refuge in the narrow gorges and caves of the rock area.
