'''Option Three''':First, for most convenience, Two bus lines will take a taxi to ''Kasemrad Hospital'' (Thai: โรงพยาบาล เกษมราษฎร์ ประชาชื่น) in ''Bang Sue'' district. Alternatively, the closest metro station is ''Wong Sawang'' on the MRT's Purple Line, from where you'll have to get out of the station walking in a southeast direction, to the big intersection of ''Wong Sawang Rd''/''Ratchadaphisek Rd''good spot 39 and 510. Turn left and follow ''Ratchadaphisek Rd'' until the intersection right Get off at the canallast stop [http:/river, where you have to turn left again/www.transitbangkok.

Facing the hospital's main car park/entrance area, turn right and pass it on the right, entering ''Sai Sin Alley'' (you can see a 7-11 convenience store); it's the only road branching off before the expressway bridge. Follow the road until the crossroad and turn right on the second road, as the first one leads back to an intersection near the canal/river. From there, you'll already see a road running along the side of the expressway. Enter and follow this road; there's no pedestrian walkway so you'll first walk on the grass on the left hand side, then along the edge of the road.
Eventually, as === To the road risesEast direction to Pattaya, you'll see that it becomes Cambodia === Hitchike from the leftmost lane front of the tollgate, where Lat Krabang Bus Terminal (bus 517AC goes there) direction to highway 7 with sign Chon Buri.

Right behind the gate Also there is a [https://goo.gl/maps/9PKjPbNi8sBJ5aMy9 covered walkway motorway rest stop after Miltitary base seems like you can walk there JUST BY GRASS NEXT TO THE BASE (link to Google Mapslooking from VVP4x4center shop side)], where a lot of people going North stop. When [[User:Raureif|Raureif]] arrived here with his girlfriend in January 2019, tollgate staff approached them five minutes after arrival; after learning they wanted to hitchhike to [[Phitsanulok]], the staff actually stopped and cars just coming out of the tollgate and helped them with communication. Result: A ride after less than 10 minutes.will drive towards you 
== Eating and Sleeping ==
There's a [https://www.google.com/maps/place/13%C2%B044'14.4%22N+100%C2%B033'40.0%22E/@13.7373313,100.5605528,177m/data=!3m2!1e3!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x0:0x0!8m2!3d13.73733!4d100.5611 Namdhari Sangat of Thailand Sikh temple] near Sukhumvit MRT station [13.73733N, 100.5611E] where you can get free food between 9am and 11.30am and 6/6.30pm to 9/9.30pm. To find it, locate the exit of the station that is in the North along Thanon Montri Rd., turn right and walk some hundred meters. The temple is on your right, you can recognise it by the Indians dressed in white that are hanging out on the square before it. Keep in mind that you should cover your head (also as a male) and also show your reverence by going into the room on your right and bowing to all the spiritual men and all the pictures of spiritual men in this room. When you leave it, you'll be rewarded with a sweet :-) afterwards just hang out in the main hall until somebody notices you; they'll know you're there for the food. After the meal you're expected to wash your dishes. In this temple, there's always people sleeping as well, so if you charm them they might let you crash with them for a couple of nights as well. 
== Public Transportation ==
There are SOME red buses throughout the city which are free. Before boarding a red bus, make sure you see the word 'free' (ฟรี) written somewhere on the front of the bus (sometimes there is a blue circle with the word in white; other times it is at the end of a sentence). Just hop on and hop off wherever you please. Bus 15 is good to see Khao San Rd, Siam Shopping district, Ratchadamri Road, Asiatique Market and everything in between.
