The “Renaissance in Siam I: The Future of Hua Lamphong Railway Station” will feature a series of activities related to railway culture. Event attendees are invited to witness the magnificent history of 100-year-old Hua Lamphong Railway Station, while at the same time exploring the possible developments and future directions for the transformation of the Station into the Museum.
