Chiang Mai and Bangkok are the cities that must be visited in Thailand. In order to save time, many people usually choose to take a plane from Chiang Mai to Bangkok. Because there is no high-speed railway in Thailand, the speed of the train is relatively slow, and it is said that it is often late, which makes many people 'look forward to it and hold back'. What is the train environment like in Thailand?
Although the Thai train is only 600 kilometers away from Chiang Mai to Bangkok, and it takes us 12 hours to run, we are quite surprised. Fortunately, we bought a sleeper ticket to get to Bangkok after a sleep, and we won't delay our time.
The sleeper ticket we bought is about 230 yuan, which can take 12 hours of train sleeper at this price. We have to worry about whether the train conditions will be too bad. If we think about the green skin train in China before, what's better about the Thai train? As a result, when we boarded the train at Chiang Mai railway station, we were greatly surprised.
Although the Thai train is still a traditional slow speed train, the facilities inside the train compartment are not inferior to those of China's high-speed train. The key is that the sanitation level is really amazing. It's spotless and odorless. Not to mention the green skin trains in China before, even the high-speed trains in China now are not as clean as Thai trains.
Thailand's train tickets can be purchased online and can be used directly after printing. Thailand's railway stations usually do not need to check tickets. You can directly board the train and wait for the conductor to check the tickets after the train starts. In addition, I found that most of the passengers on the train from Chiang Mai to Bangkok are tourists from all over the world.
If you look at the toilet of Thailand's train, it's also very clean. Many Chinese tourists think that Thailand's economic development level is not as high as China's, and Thailand's train certainly can't compare with China's train. As a result, after personal experience, we find that Thailand's train can't do worse or even better than China's train in other aspects besides its relatively slow speed.
As I said earlier, we bought a sleeper ticket for the train from Chiang Mai to Bangkok. But when we got on the train, we found that it was the seat. Where is the sleeper?
It turns out that this is another "mystery" of Thai trains. At a certain time in the evening, the conductor will come to change everyone's "seats" into "berths" one by one, and make beds for everyone one by one. We all know that "Thai service" is famous all over the world. Unexpectedly, on Thai trains, the service is so considerate. It's really surprising!
What's more, the bedding on the train sleeper in Thailand is one-to-one change. I help you unpack the disinfection package face-to-face and make the bed for you face to face. The train sleeper in Thailand has only two upper and lower layers, not three. In addition, the sleeper is much more spacious and clean than the hard sleeper on the green skin train in China. Think about the bedding on our hard sleeper. I don't know how often it will be changed.
In the twinkling of an eye, the 'seats' of the whole carriage became' sleeper '. The next day, the conductor came back to help us change' sleeper 'back to' seat ', and then recycled and packaged bedding in turn for the next group of guests to use. We couldn't help but marvel that the 12 hour train sleeper with more than 200 RMB could enjoy such considerate service, It's really worth it!
