Baan Sood Soi Residence 1 is in Thonburi, on the western side of the Chao Phraya river, where streets of local shops, neighbourhood markets and small temples give the area a local feel. The historic core of Bangkok, with its royal palaces, lies on the other bank, so the classic sights are reached by crossing the river. Travellers who want to explore both banks will find the setting useful.

Wat Arun, the Temple of Dawn, stands on the Thonburi riverbank about 4.1 km away, and the Grand Palace is 3.7 km away across the river. The Grand Palace complex is one of Bangkok's best-known sights, with the Temple of the Emerald Buddha inside. Closer by, Wat Chao Am Temple is one of the local temples, and the National Museum of Royal Barges, which displays the royal ceremonial boats, is also in Thonburi. Getting around is straightforward: the Southern Bus Terminal is 1,000 m away and Bang Khun Non MRT station is 1.5 km away, with buses and the metro linking the rest of the city.

A good day could start at Wat Arun, then cross the river to the Grand Palace area, and end with the riverside shops at Asiatique - The Riverfront. Because the sights are spread across both banks, it helps to plan the route in order, starting with the closest temples on the same bank. Chatuchak Weekend Market is further north and a longer trip, while Siam Paragon is a large shopping centre in central Bangkok.
