mrtoad Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 Lots to do in that area. I have a house in Soi 33 since 2009, apart from the traffic I really like the area. Plenty around Bangkapi as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty around Bangkapi as well. Yeah I don't have any big road close to my apartment so its fresher air and music for my ears hearing the birds outside my windows, not like where I used to live with a big road exactly outside with never ending traffic and bars. the only thing here is two things: A house has at least 8 big dogs when they start its a never ending orchestral and a hotel playing music all night. but you cant always have it all, and the music is quiet good and I like my apartment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heaps to do up that way, get out on your own and find out for yourself. EG, lose the g/f for a day or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fifthcolumn Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 Sorry, this is up by Central and Union malls or the other direction? Central is nicely rennovated but never struck me as a great neigborhood. Lots of college girls up in those malks though, esp Union. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt1591 Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 Down this lttle trok, off Phahon Yothin, behind Union Mall, there's a great little food shop, serving tasty cook-to-order dishes. http://goo.gl/maps/5deR1 It's about 50 meter in, on the left.

Only cuz I don't have a monthly income yet does not mean that I don't have money. she pays only the rent but who do you think pays for everything else. so the rent thing does not really mater cuz I stand for all the other costs, at least 5 times that.

rgs2001uk Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 How is that area close to KSR? Thankfully its nowhere near it. If living where the OP says, he would have to get the boat from Wat Klang all the way to Prantunam, at least 30-40 minutes, then change for the next boat. With all thats on offer in this area, why anyone would want to head to KSR is beyond me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

District Ladphrao. main road: Thanon Lad Phrao. Just in case you'll ever have to write your address e.g. reporting it to immigration: You say in another post that you've moved to Th. Ladprao Soi 130 - that'd be in Bangkok Province. District (amphur) Wang Tong Lang. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexRRR Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 Ahhh lad phrao...........i lived there for 10 months.....just up the road from central and around a lot of out of the way places to haunt if you want to take the time but im sure your TGF knows about them, ok if your under 30 its a fairly youngish area. Traffic is absolutely bad news, most nights to 11am so i hope you like walking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stromasher24 Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 If you're bored you can wander around CDC (Crystal Design Centre) and look at how expensive modern useless furniture is, CDC also has a good choice of restaurants and on a weekend the place gets busy. Town in Town area also has some not bad restaurants, "Op Aroi" seafood place is excellent. If you're into golf All Star is a good driving range, all these not so far form where you are. Theres a Muay Thai place on the corner of Padit Manu Tham road and Town in Town junction (near Regents school) but guessing there may be more near Lat Phrao itself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
