Attractions Near by Sawasdee Sukhumvit Inn - Soi 57
Sukhumvit Road
is where most of the foreigners live and hang out. Sukhumvit Road

But the section from the Soi 1 to Soi 55 is
where it has much to offer visitors and locals alike
in Bangkok area.
There are restaurants all the way along Sukhumvit Road and in just about every side street. These cover just about
almost every cuisine in the world. The area around Soi Nana at the beginning of Sukhumvit Road has many
international restaurants, particularly those serving Middle Eastern, Indian,
Western, Europe and Thai cuisine. This area is also well-known for its lively bar scene.
There are also a variety of international fast food restaurants as well as those serving French, Italian, Japanese and Korean in addition to Thai and Thai-Chinese meals.
Another street of bars, Soi Cowboy, is just past Asoke
Road. And there is a beautiful park, Benchasiri Park, just before you reach The Emporium
Shopping Mall, yet another high class shopping center.
The condominiums in this area have a high number of expatriate Japanese families residing here, so there are more Japanese restaurants and bars in this locale. Some call it Little Tokyo.
Soi 55, also known as Soi Thonglor, is another street of restaurants and shops catering to the well-to-do. Opposite the entrance to Soi
Thonglor on Sukhumvit Road, is a small Soi that fills up at night with a multitude of food vendors and their carts serving supper into the early morning.

Thonglor Station.
