Via the Sam Yot MRT station

If you want to explore the Old City on foot, this is the ideal station. From here, you can easily reach Dinso Road, Wang Burapha, the edge of Chinatown, Wat Ratchabophit, the wholesale markets, and the arcades filled with textiles, goldware, cameras, and secondhand toy shops. You could easily spend half a day wandering in different directions from the exits—more than can be said for most MRT stations.

The station itself is clean and the signs are easy to read, so you don't have to spend much time deciphering them. The bus stop area in front of it, however, is considerably less well-maintained. One reviewer reported seeing someone sniffing glue there at 7:30 a.m. and wished staff would keep an eye on it. This isn't a reason to avoid the station altogether, but if you arrive early or are traveling alone, it's best to head straight to the platforms instead of loitering upstairs.

    A beautiful, clean, and well-organized train station. From here, you can easily reach Dinso Road, Wang Burapa, Chinatown, Wat Ratbopit, etc.

    I once saw someone sniffing glue at a bus stop at 7:30 in the morning. I was terrified. I wish there were staff there and that the bus stops were better organized, because right now they're just tents where people wait.
