Silom Road is an office avenue by day. The reason to stop is the canteens after work, plus the park and one high point at either end. Do not walk the whole road as a sight. Half a day: Lumphini at dawn or a slow half hour in the library, a roofed afternoon, and at dusk only Mahanakhon or State Tower. Patpong is the evening; do not stamp the night lane by day. This day does not continue to Yaowarat or Thonglor.
Best time
The avenue itself has no ticket. Observatories charge their own fares. Unchecked figures are not written here — follow that building's notice.
How to go
BTS Chong Nonsi or Sala Daeng, on Rabbit. MRT Silom is another payment. Lock the exit before you leave the station.
Tips
- · Canteens appear after work. At noon you only cross the road.
