The Bangkok Mass Transit System (BTS) has become popular in the main business area and shopping centres i n
Bangkok. There are two lines: Sukhumwit and Silom. The interchange
station is at Siam Square. The trains run daily from 6 a.m. to midnight
and the fare ranges from 10 to 40 baht depending on the length of your
journey. You can also buy one or three day passes for 100 baht and 280
baht respectively. The trains come at intervals of 5 minutes or less.
All of the trains are clean and air-conditioned. It is a comfortable
and quick way to get around town though the lines are rather limited.
There are plans to extend the routes in the future which will make it
far more useful. Three of the stations connect with the Metro line
which helps a bit and you can also catch express river boats from the
Saphan Taksin station. There are also free shuttle bus services at many
of the stations which help take you a bit further. The BTS is a good
way to travel to the Weekend Market, Siam Square, the Eastern Bus
Terminal, and night-club areas such as Nana and Patpong.
