Rama 9
Bangkok’s newest business quarter, rising around the Phra Ram 9 interchange.
The new business quarter
Rama 9 is the city’s newest centre of gravity. Around the Phra Ram 9 interchange, Grade-A offices, a super-tower cluster and a generation of residential towers have given the district its standing as Bangkok’s emerging business quarter.
It draws professionals and investors who want new stock, strong yields and a district still finding its ceiling.
A skyline still being drawn.
Living here
Central Plaza Grand Rama 9 and the Singha Complex hold the retail and offices; the One City Centre tower marks the skyline; and Royal City Avenue keeps the district’s nightlife a short ride west.
Getting around
Phra Ram 9 MRT links to Sukhumvit and Silom in a single line, and the Airport Rail Link at nearby Makkasan reaches Suvarnabhumi directly.
