Via the Tao Poon MRT station

This is a station you're more likely to pass through than visit. It's an interchange point on the MRT Blue Line in Bang Sue, in northern Bangkok, and primarily serves to transfer passengers between lines and to the rest of the city. If you live nearby, this is your main access point. Otherwise, you'll probably only ever see it as a name on the platform map.

Above ground, a vibrant residential and commercial district of Bangkok stretches along Thanon Pracha Rat Sai 2, featuring local markets, small restaurants, and the typical everyday life of an area that doesn't seek the limelight. This isn't a criticism, but simply means that it's not the place to plan your day trip. The station itself offers the usual amenities: ticket machines, a customer service desk, and wheelchair access.

If you use the MRT more than twice a day, a prepaid card is worthwhile instead of buying single tickets each time. It's cheaper and saves you from having to wait in line at the ticket machine. You can get the card at any MRT station.
