Description: |
|
Silom is undoubtedly one of the city's most important financial
districts with many bank headquarters, financial institutions
and office buildings. Fine hotels, smaller type malls and great
restaurants abound in the area too - and then of course there's
the famous nightlife scene of Patpong. Bangkok's two most
sophisticated mass transportation systems - the Skytrain
(BTS) and underground - both have Silom connections, which are
also conveniently connected by the walkway between MRT Silom and
BTS Sala Daeng stations. Siam, Chidlom, Ploenchit, Sathorn, and
the riverside are only a few BTS stations away.
Sathorn
neighbourhood stretches from Lumpini Park to the Chao Phraya
River and contains some of Bangkok's trendiest hotels like the
Sukhothai, W Bangkok, and the Banyan Tree. The area also boasts
many upmarket serviced apartments and a variety of fine
restaurants serving up excellent local and international
cuisine. The Bangkok Skytrain (BTS)
runs along most part of this road with stations at
Surasak and Saphan Taksin. Sathorn is one of Bangkok's 'newest'
areas and has seen phenomenal growth over recent years, mostly
as a result of its outstanding location close to prime areas
like Silom, Siam, the riverside and Sukhumvit Road. It's
particularly popular too with an ever-increasing expat
community, long-stay visitors and business travellers. |
