BKK Day 10 │ Boxing Day • Siam and Beyond!

Ratchaprasong Skywalk in a Snap

Floating above Bangkok’s busiest crossroads, the walk from CentralWorld to Siam Paragon is a quick hit of pure city magic.

You glide past the Erawan Shrine, catch breezes between the towers, and watch BTS trains slide in and out of Chidlom and Siam. The chaos below becomes a kind of moving artwork while you stroll in calm, elevated comfort.

A few minutes later, the skyline tightens, the vibe turns youthful, and Siam Paragon rises ahead like a polished finale. Short, scenic, and unmistakably Bangkok.

Siam Paragon & MBK Adventures

We strolled to Siam Paragon for a replacement mount for our DJI Action camera (THB900 ≈ MYR118/USD29/EUR25). A tuk-tuk mishap later (THB200 ≈ MYR26/USD7/EUR6 for a short ride!), we finally caught the right EV bus and ended up at Sukhumvit 42, where street food awaited:

Cut fruits, BBQ pork with sticky rice, drinks – THB150 ≈ MYR20/USD5/EUR4

Relaxation & Dinner

Back at Tierra Residences, we freshened up before heading to Aurora Massage for an invigorating neck, shoulder, and foot massage (THB350 each + THB100 tip ≈ MYR105/USD26/EUR22). Dinner was at our favorite Pad Thai stall at PTT Station:

Pad Khra Pow with Minced Pork & Egg
Pad Khra Pow with Crispy Pork & Egg
Apple Soda & Mineral Water

Total: THB224 ≈ MYR29/USD7/EUR6

Wrapping Up

With Cat’s lozenges and nasal spray in hand, we returned to pack for tomorrow’s flight. Stay tuned for the final video in our Bangkok series as we take MH789 back to Kuala Lumpur!
