The last time I went to Bangkok was 6 years ago, and it was also my first time going abroad. This time, I just wanted to Travel around Bangkok, so I planned a route that would satisfy my sleep and leisurely stroll, and at the same time, I could explore as many artistic corners of Bangkok as possible. This line is called the "Sukhumvit line", from Mo Chit to Bering. The three areas I want to explore are all on this green line, namely Ari Station for art, Siam Station for a variety of things, and Asok Station for satisfying taste buds. *Mo Chit Station is the stop for Chatuchak weekend market and the stop for the airport direct bus.

Next stop: Ari

Since many foreigners live in Ari District, some cafés, Western-style restaurants, and boutique art shops have grown up here; and when walking here, it is rarely very quiet and there are not too many motorcycles. The noise of cars.

Walking
⓵ Bangkok Espresso Bar Est.2012

Ari has many cafes and restaurants with beautiful interior and exterior decorations , you will see many girls taking photos when passing by.
  
But I just wanted to drink a cup of specialty coffee, so I compared multiple reviews on Google. The first picture I saw of Bangkok Espresso Bar reminded me of Melbourne’s café style, and I immediately locked it.

I was not disappointed. The first sip of this Ice Latte told me that I was in the right place. I could smell the roasted aroma of freshly roasted coffee beans. I was so happy that I could drink specialty coffee for only 45 baht a cup!
  
At that time, I met a local boy who lived nearby when I was eating. When he talked about this cafe, he bluntly said that this cafe is the cheapest and the best.

⓶ Gloc Boutique

This is a small but beautiful literary boutique that sells some independent designer items, such as clothes, bags, jewelry, and shoes. Products...

In terms of price, it is still relatively expensive under the price of goods in Thailand, but compared with the price trend of domestic art stores in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, this one is still affordable.

⓷ Ari Recommendations for other walking spots:

The Ari Soi alley and the neighboring streets are very convenient for shopping. There is also an art museum, but it was closed when I was there and I didn’t go. Gloc Boutique is next to several local food stalls and they are delicious~ For example, there is a store selling grilled chicken legs and wings on the street, which is awesome!

⓸ Museum of Contemporary Art

If you want to explore art museums in Bangkok, there is no reason to miss MOCA. If you live in Ari District, this is the most convenient place to go. Since there is no direct light rail, you have to take the bus yourself. My experience with cars tells me that it’s better to take a Grab taxi there. It’s a total of 10 kilometers from Ari Station and taking a taxi is very cheap.

The whole building has 5 floors. The exhibits and exhibition halls are designed in a modern style. When I went there, there was a super cute bad-tempered little rabbit on the first floor. This rabbit is from Bangkok. I have seen the iconic works of street artist Alex Face in many places in Bangkok~

⓹ Chatuchak Weekend Market

Bangkok-A girl's travel map of Bangkok, exploring the literary corners of Bangkok

If you are in Bangkok on the weekend, everyone will go to the Chatuchak weekend market, but it is too big, too big, and there are indeed treasures to buy, including retro second-hand/artistic handicrafts, but you must be prepared to run away with energy. Prepare.
  
You can put the MOMA itinerary and the Chatuchak weekend market together because the two locations are very close to each other.

The Yard Hostel

This is a garden-style courtyard hotel. There is a Japanese-style bar at the entrance. You enter the courtyard through a small wooden door. You step on the bluestone and walk 20 meters straight to the front desk. Breakfast is also eaten in the courtyard. The cool breeze blown by the big and powerful fan is not Hot, but too many mosquitoes.

The room has a very warm detail. Each bed has a small window, and you can see the green plants outside the window. This is a treatment that is rarely found in multi-person hotels. cute.

Next stop: Siam Centre

The Siam Center business district has everything. Basically, everyone who goes to Bangkok cannot avoid it. If you have shopping needs for cosmetics/clothing and other international/local brands, you can go here to buy them all in one stop.

⓵ BACC Bangkok Culture and Arts Center

Bangkok-A girl's travel map of Bangkok, exploring the literary corners of Bangkok


Maybe I didn’t When I meet my favorite exhibition, I personally think that there are more art shops here than the art museum. The art museum is on the 5th floor, and there are various art shops below. Although the selection of products is pretty good, the prices are a bit expensive. , is a good place for petty bourgeois literary and artistic young people to hang out.

Many people recommend the various independent design collection stores in Siam Center, but to be honest, there are not many designs with Thai characteristics, and most of them are international choices. There is no advantage in terms of price compared to other countries in terms of quality products; in my opinion, BACC wins this comparison. You can really find treasures if you shop around.

⓶ YELO House

Step out from BACC Turn left and walk to the end to reach Yelo House. I know this multi-functional art gallery thanks to The Yard Hostel map guide. Many people call it the Yellow House. There is a café on the first floor. Going inside, there is another café facing the graffiti river.

⓷ The Jam Factory

Bangkok-A girl's travel map of Bangkok, exploring the literary corners of Bangkok

Ah, this lakeside creative park is really hard to describe. First of all, the transportation here is not very convenient. It is best to take the light rail to the vicinity and then take a taxi. Secondly, there are only two or three creative stores here, and the selections are all available in the collection stores in Siam Discovery, and there are more. There is also a very expensive restaurant with a very literary name, but Bangkok is not short of such beautiful and literary restaurants nowadays.

The only bright spot is that Jam Factory has a small art gallery called DEN Gallery. The space is small, but the exhibitions are quite cute. You can check it out before going Search its recent exhibition on Google and decide whether to go.

⓸ Siam Square Soi Street

There is a block opposite Siam Discovery, where there are many small shops. Shopping has not changed much since I came here 6 years ago. Here you can buy independent designer clothes, eat delicious Thai food, drugstores, dessert shops... There is a dazzling array of things to see, and it is a very local neighborhood. , it’s worth taking a walk to hunt for Taobao.

Chao Hostel
Bangkok-A girl's travel map of Bangkok, exploring the literary corners of Bangkok

Chao Hostel is a good value for money accommodation near the central business district of Bangkok. It takes about 10 minutes to walk to Siam Center. There is also a delicious night market opposite. Overall, Chao Hostel is very comfortable. Its decoration style draws on the traditional Thai riverside wooden houses, especially the hollow wooden cage lamps you will see when you enter the hotel. There are scattered wooden boats in the hotel space.

The multi-person room here has a bathroom, but the sound insulation is not good, but the best thing is the bed setting. The lower bunk is a storage room, the upper bunk is a bed, and there are bed curtains. There is also a sofa in the room for everyone to chat together.

☽ 3Howw hostel

There is nothing outstanding about this hotel, but it is both a youth hostel and a Muay Thai gym, and it is very cheap in this area. Although it is small, it has everything. The biggest highlight is the super comfortable single bed that can be locked. Bedside table; but for me, meeting some interesting people here is very satisfying.
