Enzian Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 What IS considered "the Din Daeng intersection"? I lived around Din Dang for two years and I'm not sure. Is it where Asoke coming from the south meets Din Daeng Road from the west and Ram IX Road from the east? Right before the Ram IX metro station on Ratchadaphisek Road continuing north?
