About Thong Lo BTS Station

The main thing to understand about this stop is that the station is the start of the walk, not the end of it. It's a mid-line stop on the BTS Sukhumvit Line, and the exits drop you at the mouth of Soi 55, right by the main strip of restaurants, cafés, bars and small boutiques. But Thong Lo runs a long way north, and plenty of the places people come here for are much further up. If your booking is past the first stretch, take a motorbike taxi from the bottom of the soi rather than trying to walk it in the heat.

As a piece of transport, it does the job well. Siam, Asok and On Nut are all a straight run on the same line, and you skip Sukhumvit's traffic entirely, which on a bad evening is worth a lot.
