Bangkok's quietest major road — lined with embassies, luxury residences, and some of the city's best restaurants.
Sathorn Road feels different from the rest of Bangkok — wide, tree-lined, patrolled by embassy security; expensive cars; fewer tourists than anywhere else this central.
The British, Australian, German, Netherlands and other Western embassies line Sathorn Road; the US Embassy is nearby on Wireless Road.
Some of Bangkok's most serious restaurants are on or near Sathorn — Paste, Bo.Lan (now closed but representative of the level), and several others.
BTS Chong Nonsi or Surasak; the road runs parallel to the BTS Silom line.
