Lumpini

lumpini

The Lumpini area in central Bangkok is centred around Lumpini Park and the major thoroughfares of Wireless, Langsuan, Ratchadamri, Ploenchit, Silom and Rama IV Roads. It is one of the city’s best-connected central neighbourhoods, served by the BTS Skytrain at Ploenchit, Chit Lom, Ratchadamri and Sala Daeng, as well as the MRT at Silom and Lumphini. Major newer developments have further improved connectivity: One Bangkok provides direct access to MRT Lumphini, while Silom Edge connects directly to both BTS Sala Daeng and MRT Silom.

Wireless Road remains one of Bangkok’s principal diplomatic corridors, with the embassies of the United States, Japan and Switzerland located in the Lumpini area. In August 2026, the Embassy of the Netherlands also relocated to the newly completed Central Park Offices at the Silom–Rama IV intersection.

The neighbourhood has changed considerably in recent years. Alongside its established hotels, residences and tree-lined streets, new mixed-use landmarks including One Bangkok, Dusit Central Park and Silom Edge have brought a new generation of offices, residences, hotels, restaurants, retail and public spaces to the area. One Bangkok opened its first major phase in October 2024, while Central Park and its 7-rai Roof Park opened in September 2025.
