About Sukhumvit:
Sukhumvit in many ways epitomizes modern Bangkok. Characterised by high rise apartments, air-conditioned shopping centres, stylish restaurants and a wide selection of entertainment venues. Linked to the main tourist and commercial areas by the new Skytrain (overhead rail system) the area is provides a good base for exploring the sights and sounds of Bangkok. Accommodation is also very good. Many of the hotels are new and offer excellent facilities, swimming pools and great views over the city.
Thailand's thriving and lively capital city is one of the best reasons for visiting. The new underground rail system and Skytrain now link most of the main tourist and business areas, allowing easy access to virtually anywhere in the city. The old city area (Rattanakosin) and the riverside are becoming popular areas near Bangkok's temples but if you're a shopaholic, head for Sukhumvit, Ploenchit and Rachaprasong. |
