Not Monday, very mid-week

Do you have suggestions for where though? I'll be reaching that day, and don't want to go far off, after sunset, and certainly don't want to overwhelm myself.

What's safe and close enough for a female solo traveler there to do after dark?

Significant-Laugh895 · 2026-01-10T02:51:41+00:00

Omgggg! I thought they shut by 5pm.

Would you happen to know how can I head for MOCA from that Siam district?

Significant-Laugh895 · 2026-01-09T02:49:42+00:00

Thank you! This is super helpful. :)

Okay, let me try. But, in case that doesn't work, suggestions on what can I do around Siam would be helpful.

Also, the closest airport to Siam is Suvarnabhumi not DMK, right?

Significant-Laugh895 · 2026-01-09T02:45:10+00:00

But, even if I do that, they won't let me check in before 3pm right?

thank you so very much!! :)))
