Bangkok Train Station: A Gateway to Adventure

Getting There

• Car

  If you're traveling by car from various locations in Central Thailand, the most common route is to take Highway 1 (Phahonyothin Road) or Highway 32 (Asia Highway) towards Bangkok. Once you approach the city, follow signs for 'Ratchadamnoen' or 'Rong Muang'. The station is located at Rong Mueang Rd, Pathum Wan. Parking is available nearby, but be aware that parking fees may apply, typically around 20-50 Baht per hour.

• Bus

  For public transportation, you can take a bus from major cities in Central Thailand to Bangkok. Look for buses headed to the Southern Bus Terminal or Mo Chit Bus Terminal. From either terminal, you can take a local bus (bus number 15 or 47) or a taxi to reach Bangkok Train Station on Rong Mueang Rd. The bus fare is generally around 20-30 Baht, while a taxi may cost around 100-200 Baht depending on traffic.

• Train

  If you prefer to travel by train, check the schedule for trains heading to Bangkok from other cities in Central Thailand. Once you arrive at Bangkok's Hua Lamphong Station, which is the main train station, you can take a short taxi ride or a local bus (bus number 15) to get to Bangkok Train Station on Rong Mueang Rd. Train tickets vary in price, starting from around 100 Baht for second-class seats.

• Taxi or Ride-Hailing Service

  If you're already in Bangkok or nearby, using a taxi or ride-hailing service like Grab is a convenient option. Simply set your destination to 'Bangkok Train Station, Rong Mueang Rd' in the app, and the driver will take you directly there. The fare is typically between 60-150 Baht, depending on the distance and traffic conditions.

• MRT (Subway)

  If you're in the vicinity of the MRT, you can take the subway to the Hua Lamphong MRT Station. From there, transfer to a taxi or local bus to reach Bangkok Train Station. The MRT fare ranges from 16-42 Baht depending on the distance.
