Soi Thong Lo 6 runs through the Thong Lo area of Sukhumvit, a district known for its mix of restaurants, bars and small galleries on quiet side streets. The area has a more residential feel than the busiest stretches of Sukhumvit Road, with quieter side streets between the main roads.

Thong Lo BTS Station is 700 m away, and the Skytrain connects the area with Siam, the district of big shopping centres, without needing a car. From the station, the Skytrain runs in both directions along the Sukhumvit Line, so the route to the centre is simple to follow. Wat Arun, on the west bank of the Chao Phraya, is a riverside temple with a tall, ornate central tower, and the Grand Palace, 10 km away, is the royal complex that holds the Temple of the Emerald Buddha. Suvarnabhumi Airport is 18.8 km away.

A good day could begin with Jim Thompson House, a teak museum of Thai silk and art in a traditional house, followed by a visit to Wat Arun by river and an evening back in Thong Lo for dinner. The Skytrain makes it easy to go back and forth between the quieter streets and the shopping in Siam.
