CENTRE POINT BANGKOK GUIDE
Urbane and sophisticated, buzzing Sukhumvit Road offers a popular alternative to spiritual Bangkok. Stretching east to west from central Bangkok to the suburbs, it begins where Ploenchit Road ends (Ratchaprasong junction) and continues all the way out of the capital and beyond.
The longest road in Thailand, both it and its many adjoining 'sois' (roads) are poor on traditional tourist attractions but rich in of-the-minute shopping, eating and nightlife. While there are touches of 'Thai-ness' on every corner, the many fashionable restaurants, bars, air-conditioned malls, luxury hotels and hip clubs give the area a distinctly modern, cosmopolitan, aspirational flavour.
WHERE TO DO
There aren't many traditional tourist attractions on Sukhumvit Road. There are few temples and no palaces to explore.
