Ramkhamhaeng Thai: รามคำแหง is a vast district that lies along Ramkhamhaeng Road, a major arterial road in eastern Bangkok. The area could be considered a suburb and is almost completely unknown to foreign travellers, with the notable exception of Suvarnabhumi Airport. Most of the venues cater to locals that have their own transport, so attractions are spread far out and it is hard to get around. Hua Mak and Bang Kapi in the southwest are the most interesting neighbourhoods, and also the easiest to navigate through as the Saen Saep Express Boat runs right through them. These are lively areas with shopping malls and restaurants that cater to commuters and students from the universities.
