jingjingna Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 No idea where abouts India Town is? Is off one of the Sukhumvit's ? If so, please advise, curious to know! Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billp Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 It's Pahurat, near Memorial Bridge, more or less bounded by Chakra Phet and Thri Phet, but extending into the end of Sampheng Lane. Generally referred to as "Little India." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jingjingna Posted August 2, 2008 Author Share Posted August 2, 2008 Thanks for the info, which means zilch to me not living in Bangkok....could you kindly advise the easiest way to get there by car from say Pattaya? Also, recommendations for hotels/restaurants would also be welcomed. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buzby Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 Look on any map of Bangkok and the roads mentioned are close to the Grand Palace in a South East Direction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jingjingna Posted August 2, 2008 Author Share Posted August 2, 2008 Any specific landmarks, hotels? Will be using my GPS to guide me there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groongthep Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 (edited) Click on the following link to get an interactive map of Bangkok: Bangkok Map. In the small search box in the upper left hand side of the map type in Phahurat then click "FIND". It will show you Pahurat Road near the end of Sampeng Lane, which is the area sometimes called Little India. You can use the zoom controls to determine the best route for you to drive depending on which direction you are coming from.

webworldly Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 I'd like to ask a different question.....I promise, it's not more about directions! Lol! I've been to Little Arabia quite often....I love it. Everything about it. The vibe, the shops, the food, etc. I also lived in India for a short while......but I have not been to Little India. What is "Little India" like? Relative to "Little Arabia"....is there as much of an "genuine, positive vibe" in Little India? I never had heard of it before this post....is it "newer"? Why so little talk about it? CHEERS! D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
