Sukhumvit Sleepless Nights?
So I stayed at Sukhumvit Backpacker last month, right near Nana Plaza. The place was buzzing, seriously non-stop action outside. My question is: how do the locals cope with the noise? I mean, I’m u… more
Years I lived near Nana Plaza. It’s… a thing. You get used to it, kinda like living near a constantly-running train. Or a very loud, never-ending party. Earplugs are a good idea, seriously. The further down Sukhumvit you go, the quieter it gets. Areas past Thonglor are noticeably calmer, though still bustling. You might even find yourself wishing for the Nana Plaza soundtrack after a while. But honestly? A decent pair of earplugs is your best friend if you’re sensitive to noise.

If total zen is your goal, maybe pack a waterproof book sleeve and snag a lounger before the crowds really pile in.
