Travel and Adventure
Soi Rambuttri is a wonderful shaded and quieter version of Khao San Road. This is great since they run parallel to each other. Actually, Soi Rambuttri and shaped like a horseshoe. Many people enter from Phra Athit and is convenient to Phra Athit pier on the Chao Phraya. It can be a little difficult to find as there are many different signs on Phra Athit. From the pier on the Phra Athit, turn right. The second block across the street is Chana Songkhram Alley. This short alley ends at Soi Rambuttri.
I enjoyed this are much more than Khao San Road. It offers much more shade and less of a bar scene. There are more hostels and massage places, some are set up right on the road. Most of the activity is to the left when you arrive from the alley. If you turn right, the road curves around and appears to be a dead end. You will see a sign pointing to a stair that leads to a hotel/restautant. It looks very shady but you enter right into a lobby which you are welcome to walk through. You exit onto Chakrabongse Road. Turn left and the next street is Khao San Road.
Soi Rambuttri is nice to go to in the late afternoon. Relax, shop, eat then when the sun is setting, walk over to Khao San Road.
