SUKHUMVIT IS A SUPER LONG ROAD THAT STRETCHES A RECORD 488 KM OR 303 MILES ALL THE WAY FROM BANGKOK AND FOLLOWING THE COASTAL ROAD TO REACH CAMBODIA CAN YOU BELIEVE? IT ENDS IN TRAT, THAILAND WHICH BORDERS CAMBODIA, THE SAME WAY RANTAU PANJANG IN KELANTAN BORDERS GOLOK IN THAILAND.

But just remember Soi 22 which is Lane 22 as this is where Dinosaur Planet is located. Don't worry, wherever you stay in Bangkok, Sukhumvit Soi 22 is an easy taxi ride or take the MRT overhead train and get off at Prom Phong station and walk backwards 8 minutes towards Holiday Inn which is directly next to Dinosaur Planet and you can see the theme park from your bedroom!

I stayed at Holiday Inn Sukhumvit Soi 22 which costs around RM 450 a night including breakfast. Contact reservations.bkkhi@ihg.com for best guaranteed rates.

Dinosaur Planet is produced and owned by Mall Group which also owns the nearby Emporium shopping mall and EmQuartier and Helix Quartier with its incredible 100-metre spiral filled with ferns, plants and creepers that is literally a living floral chanderlier! Take the escalator up and elevator down for the best of both views! Then visit the outdoor terrace garden with full grown trees and reflecting pools and works of art!

Shopping here is among the best not only in Thailand but all of Asia and can compare with Tokyo, Hongkong and Shanghai. All the famous grand brands are here, from a massive Louis Vuitton flagship store to smaller but still prestigious and pricey labels.

You can spend 2 days exploring Em Quartier with its sensational upscale shopping and uber cool restaurants, cafes and bars.
