Tips for Silom–Sathorn commuters
- Use the MRT Blue Line. Units along it from Phra Ram 9 to the Convention Centre reach Si Lom without changing lines.
- Allow time for the change. Switching from the BTS Sukhumvit Line to the Silom Line at Siam is crowded in the morning.
- If you also work around Asok, read Working Near Asok? Where to Rent Within 15 Minutes.
