Bangkok railway station

Bangkok railway station is a station building in Rong Mueang with Renaissance Revival architecture and a distinctive dome-shaped structure. The main terminal features 12 platforms and Italian architectural details that connect train lines from multiple regions of the country.

Construction of the station began in 1897 under the direction of Italian architect Mario Tamagno. The facility opened for rail service in 1916 and subsequently became the central hub connecting train routes throughout the country.

The station serves as a central meeting point where people from across the country gather to travel and connect with loved ones. Its role as a transportation hub has made it a place where everyday Thai life and long-distance journeys intersect naturally.

Visitors can explore the station building during regular operating hours and move through different areas without needing to purchase a ticket. Information desks and staff throughout the facility can help with orientation and answer questions about connections and the site.

The station building houses a railway museum with a collection of artifacts and documents showing the history of train travel in Thailand. Visitors can discover rare items on display that tell the story of how railways developed across the country.
