A local culture road that stands out distinctly in Bangkok

“UNFASHIONDISTRICT39,” which stands out distinctly even within Bangkok, is an area where local culture, street art, and street food come together.

This place, utilizing a redeveloped former factory site, is filled with a free and unique sensibility that is the complete opposite of fashion, and just walking around gives you a boost of inspiration.

Don’t miss the local food either. From fragrant pad thai grilled on an iron plate, Isaan-style skewers grilled over charcoal, to street-style Thai ramen, you’ll find a lineup of “serious flavors” not aimed at tourists. After evening, the area becomes lively with local youth and artists, creating an atmosphere like a vibrant night market.

The location is deep inside Sukhumvit Soi 39, about a 15-minute walk from BTS Phrom Phong Station or about 5 minutes by motorcycle taxi. It’s perfect for those who want to experience a deep side of Bangkok that is distinct from typical tourist spots.

If you’re a bit tired of sightseeing, refresh your senses and palate here. You’re sure to find a new way to enjoy Bangkok where art and local gourmet food merge.
