More info: Sukhumvit is a vibrant and bustling area of Bangkok located along Sukhumvit Road. It is one of the main shopping, dining, and nightlife hubs of the city, home to some of the best restaurants, hottest clubs, biggest malls, and most luxurious hotels.
Looking at the high-rise apartment buildings, the Skytrain and the perennial traffic jam on Sukhumvit Road, it is hard to believe that this area used to consist of rice fields until World War II.
