Thai families, international-school teachers and foreigners all doing their everyday shopping here
On the streets of On Nut, Thai families come for their weekly grocery run, international school teachers stop by to pick up food on their way home, and you'll even see foreigners standing outside 7-Eleven ordering grilled pork skewers. Locals and foreigners live mixed together here—it's not a neighborhood where foreigners cluster into their own bubble, and the vibe is relaxed. International schools line On Nut Road, and there are plenty of condos along the street too. From BTS On Nut station, you can walk across the skywalk straight into the second floor of Century The Movie Plaza.
Century is a community mall—the mall, cinema and hotel are all in one spot. For everyday shopping, it ranks third out of the six neighborhoods, and the mall is right there once you step off the skywalk. T77 is a planned residential estate with green space and wide pavements, where kids ride scooters on the street—it feels like a proving ground for suburban living. Habito, on On Nut Road, was developer Sansiri's first community mall, designed to be a "third space" for residents. Inside you'll find cafes, restaurants and co-working space. At Wat Mahabut on On Nut Soi 7, there's a shrine to Mae Nak, Thailand's famous female ghost. As the story goes, she was sealed into a clay pot by a senior monk and thrown into the Phra Khanong canal. Devotees tie colourful ribbons around the temple's bodhi tree trunk and release live fish into the canal.
On Nut doesn't have a large park of its own; on weekends you can head out to Rama IX Park just outside the neighborhood, which has jogging tracks, a botanical garden and a lake. Going by our street photos, the building exteriors here rank last among the six neighborhoods. There's also noise from construction sites and traffic on the streets; traffic gets tight during peak hours, especially along Sukhumvit Road.
The Phra Khanong canal was widened and dredged between 1837 and 1840 during the reign of Rama III, after which more and more families settled along its banks. Sukhumvit Road was completed in 1936, and On Nut Road is its Soi 77—the road takes its name from the landowner who donated the land for its construction at the time. BTS On Nut station opened in December 1999, and for over a decade it served as the eastern terminus of the Sukhumvit Line. It wasn't until August 2011 that the eastward extension opened. Century opened in October 2018.
