The traffic outside Siam Paragon and Ratchaprasong area will be partially closed to make way for the “Amazing Thailand Tourism Year 2018” parade from 5pm – 9pm, local media reported today.

 

Conveniently scheduled during rush hour, the traffic of two major roads, Rama I and Ratchadamri, will be partially shut down. The closure of Rama I Road will start from Pathumwan Intersection on the side of Siam Discovery shopping mall all the way to Ratchaprasong Intersection.
