World’s most dangerous market is situated in Thailand right on top of a railway track!

Called as Mae Klong market in the country’s Samut Songkhram province, the bazar is in close proximity of the train tracks and every time a train passes through, the shop owners move their stalls in order to make way for it.

As soon as the train bell rings, the hawkers have only 3-5 minutes to pack their stuff and move from the tracks, after which they set their stalls again.

The marketplace sells everything from fruits, vegetables and meat to clothes and other human-consumption stuff.

Mae Klong railway market is located 50 kms from Bangkok and trains move through it for a total of 7-8 times, causing hawkers to move and set up their stalls again and again.
