You step off an air-conditioned van into humid morning light, the scent of coconut and frying batter following like a companion. A narrow gauge train threads between canvas canopies at the Maeklong Railway Market; vendors fold umbrellas and slide produce away as metal wheels rush past, then reopen and resume business as if nothing happened. Later, a long-tail boat slips into the narrow arms of Klong Damnoen Saduak, the canal daring you to look closer at life on the water.
