Bangkok Mass Transit System (BTS)Bangkok is a large and sprawling city with a fantastic public transportation system. Before you hop in a taxi, check out the BTS (Bangkok Mass Transit System) map. The elevated skytrain consists of two lines that together span over 22 miles. The Sukhumvit Line runs north and east, while the Silom Line runs along the city’s central business district. The two lines intersect at the Siam Station, one of the 34 stations overall. The skytrain isn’t just the sustainable choice, it’s also a fantastic way to experience everyday life in Bangkok.
