Escape the sweltering heat and boredom of home with a scenic train ride and photo shoot near Bangkok.
The free train to Hua Hin, which we have become regulars on, has now departed. This is a mode of travel without a private car that we often use. The train we usually take is the 261 Bangkok-Hua Hin, departing from Bangkok Station at 9:20 am and arriving at Ban Pong Railway Station at approximately 11:09 am, depending on the time, which may require a little extra time.

Here is the translation of the text:
This trip was super economical because we only walked around taking pictures. It might be a bit tiring, as it was extremely hot. We bought water frequently and ate whenever we were hungry. Make sure to bring a hat and an umbrella if you plan to go. We mainly focused on finding street art to take pictures with.
The translation may not be exhaustive due to fatigue. Walking was tiring, so comfortable shoes are recommended. While walking, we encountered street art, but local residents were not very knowledgeable about it. It was unexpected to find such beautiful and charming street art in a small town like Ban Pong.
This wall art is part of the "70110: Ban Pong Urban Art Terminal #1/2017" project, a contemporary art development initiative for the Ban Pong community in 2017. The project was a collaboration between AT EXCHANGE and BAAN NOORG, who worked together to create art installations throughout Ban Pong. While the exhibition officially ended on July 30, 2017, the stunning street art remains on display for all to enjoy.

We visited on a weekday when there were few people around. When we tried to ask the locals, there weren't many people available. The only people we encountered were elderly women who didn't know where the paintings were. We ended up searching for them ourselves, walking around in circles until we eventually found them.
The translation is:
It can be a bit difficult without someone to take photos for you, but if you're coming alone, you can use a tripod. The murals on the wall are still beautiful, new, and haven't faded too much from the sun. It's recommended to come while they're still new so you can take photos with the vibrant colors. It's a quick trip from Bangkok by van, but I recommend taking the train. Once you get off at the train station, it's just a short walk to find the murals.
The main points of the image will be located at:
- Old Chalermkrung Cinema (Bangkok Van Queue)
- Ban Pong Municipal Fresh Market
- An ancient wooden house behind Lim Mui Heng Noodle Shop (Miss Universe Noodle Shop)
This is the old wooden house zone. Walk across the street and go past the municipal market. You almost missed it.
Transforming scrap fabric and leftover materials into playful creations is a fantastic way to explore new ideas. This ongoing process of discovery can spark endless inspiration.
As a cat enthusiast, I couldn't resist the opportunity to pet the chubby cats near the market. Their rotund bellies were irresistible!

Sometimes it gets confusing, which ones are done by artists and which ones are done by ordinary people. If they're going to do graffiti, they should do it beautifully. It would attract more tourists and create more photo opportunities.
The sentence is already in English and does not require translation.
Ratchaburi, a seemingly small town, has witnessed a surge in various art forms across its districts. This transformation challenges the traditional perception of Ratchaburi as solely a pottery hub, revealing its true identity as a thriving artistic center.
We passed by many cafes, some of which looked interesting. I think we should come back another time, but we were tired and hot, so we went into this cafe in the train station opposite Ban Pong Railway Station to escape the sun. The food was just okay, but let's not talk about that.
With 200-300 baht, you can get a good meal, as long as you don't eat too much! I just realized that Ban Pong has a lot of delicious food. I'll have to find some free time to come back again.
Damages
Noodles + water 42 baht
Steak + pizza + red soda + plain water for 139 baht at In Train restaurant, opposite Ban Pong train station. It was a good deal as the restaurant seemed to be newly opened.
To cool down, they bought water and ice cream at 7-Eleven.
The return trip is on the free train number 262, departing around 4 pm and arriving in Bangkok around 7 pm.
Let's go on a trip to Baan Pong, the city of earthenware jars in Ratchaburi. Today, there's more than just jars to see.
This might be the shortest and fastest review ever written. There's not much to say, I just wanted to take a train ride and take some photos. Follow our long travel stories and reviews on the "Traveling Solo" page. See you in the next review!
