Millions of tourists from around the world can attest that Bangkok, Thailand, is a wonderful place to visit, a vibrant, exciting city that’s safe and easy to get around in, with lots of things to see and do! One of Bangkok’s most well-loved areas is Sukhumvit Road, a bustling thoroughfare lined with world-class dining, shopping, and entertainment venues.
Sukhumvit also happens to be an excellent place to live, hosting a large population of expats who have quite often come to work and end up staying to play once they retire! Although foreigners are not allowed to own property in the kingdom, they can take long-term leases in luxurious downtown condominiums and residences like The Origin Sukhumvit 105, an oasis of comfort and serenity, yet just a three-minute walk to the sky train station! Once you have experienced the joy of living in such opulence in the heart of one of the world’s most popular cities, you will never want to leave!
Living on Sukhumvit Road puts you right in the middle of the downtown action; it’s your home base for everything Bangkok has to offer. You can stroll down the road to take in the many fascinating sights and sounds or jump on the sky train to get somewhere quickly; you will have easy access to a myriad of attractions! Now that you’ve moved in, it’s time to get to know what Sukhumvit Road has to offer! The following are just a few of the highlights to be found down Bangkok’s favorite road!
The Dining – Sukhumvit is home to an incredible variety of restaurants, cafes, coffee houses, and fast food venues from all corners of the globe, so you can eat your way around the world just by walking down the street! If you ever crave a taste from your native land, chances are there is a pub or restaurant that has just what you need! If it’s something more exotic you’re looking for, Sukhumvit has it- Brazilian barbecues, Middle Eastern eateries, Indian cuisine, Mexican taquerias, Japanese Izakaya red lantern pubs, and many, many more, it’s a gastronomical wonderland!
The Shopping – Street markets and small shops along the road are always a diversion; they are where you can find anything from great deals on luggage to colorful paintings of Thai scenery on black velvet (you know you want one!), there are a plethora of trinkets and souvenirs to be found! If you are seeking something a bit more high-end than the street will provide, all the world’s major brands can be found in the many shopping malls and department stores, it’s a serious shopper’s dream!
The Entertainment – We heard from a friend that Soi Cowboy Entertainment Street just a block off the main road is the place to go if you want to go-go! You can sip a drink in the outdoor seating where you can take in some of the world’s wildest people watching, or step inside one of the many nightclubs to enjoy some very interesting dance performances. Adults only, please!
Bangkok’s favourite road, Sukhumvit is a fun place to visit and a fantastic place to live!
