THE TRUTH About Thonglor: Bangkok’s MOST Livable Neighbourhood?

Описание: 📍 THE TRUTH About Thonglor: Bangkok’s MOST Livable Neighbourhood?

Thonglor is often described as Bangkok’s most livable neighbourhood: Stylish cafés, modern condos, great food, and an awesome social scene.
But living somewhere isn’t about how it looks online. It’s about routines, noise, cost, pace… and how a place actually feels day to day.
I lived in Thonglor, and in this video I walk you through the real experience. From café mornings and condo living, to traffic, boat commutes, quieter back sois, and nightlife as the day winds down.
By the end, you’ll know whether Thonglor genuinely supports the kind of life you want, or whether it just looks perfect on Instagram.

🏙️ Condos & neighbourhoods mentioned
Along the main Thonglor road and surrounding soi’s, I also touch on well-known residential options along the main Thong Lo road and also the quieter residential areas.
These examples help illustrate the range of lifestyles and price points within the same neighbourhood.

⸻
⚖️ The honest verdict
Thonglor offers a very particular style of living.
It’s visually appealing and well-serviced, though naturally busier than quieter residential areas.
It’s comfortable and convenient, with pricing that reflects its location and amenities.
It’s energetic and social, which many people enjoy, though it may not suit every pace of life.
For some, this balance is exactly what makes Thonglor feel right.
For others, different neighbourhoods in Bangkok may align better with their preferences, routines, or long-term priorities.
