Travel Digest
#1 Floating /Railway Market, Maeklong, Thailand
First, @worldcapture takes us to the Railway Market in Maeklong, Thailand. This unique and crazy market can easily be reached from Bangkok, which is 65km away. While the market itself sells nothing unusual—it is mostly a fresh produce market—what makes it interesting is that five times a day, a train runs through the middle of it. Three minutes before they arrive, the trains sound their horns and market owners move all their stuff off the tracks. @worldcapture then heads to the nearby floating market, to stroll along the river and watch people buying food and drink items from the many small boats.

#2 Dubai, UAE
Next, @lashotta takes us to the desert city of Dubai, UAE. From the moment he arrives he notices the city's incredible wealth. Dubai is full of luxury cars, luxury stores, and luxury hotels. However, the prices are not necessarily bad if one knows where to look and service always comes with a smile. Many hotels are good value, food prices are reasonable, and the buses and the driverless light rail system are clean and modern and got him where he needed to go. Interestingly, separate sections exist for men and women/children on public transport. Although there are many things to see and do in Dubai, he also makes a side to Abu Dhabi to visit the Great Mosque.

#3 Route 66 Historical Village in West Tulsa, USA
Finally, we visit the Route 66 Historical Village in West Tulsa, Oklahoma, USA with @xcountytravelers. The iconic Route 66 is a road that runs from Chicago to Santa Monica, California. Built in 2010, the Historical Village provides visitors with an overview of the road's development. Different transportation modes used during the heyday of this amazing road are displayed, including Meteor 4500 steam engine, and the business lounge car that travelled between Tulsa and Sapulpa. Furthermore, old gas stations from along the route have been used to build the visitor center. Tulsa is also known as the 'oil capital of the world' and the first oil strike reportedly occurred on this very site on June 25, 1901. The derrick and pump are not the originals, but they are exact replicas.
