The Khlong Saen Saep canal runs east to west across the city. The western section of the network, the Golden Mount Line, runs from near to Democracy Monument (a short walk from the Khao San Road) to Pratunam Pier with a stop on route near to Siam Square. The eastern section of the network, the NIDA Line, runs from Pratunam Pier eastwards with a stop on route close to the popular Lower Sukhumvit Road then on past Ramkhamhaeng University and terminating in the Bang Kapi District of Bangkok.

A ride on the boats is fun and it is also the best way to get cheaply and quickly between the Lower Sukhumvit Road and the Khao San Road. When the traffic get congested you can normally travel more quickly from the Sukhumvit Road to the Khao San Road by canal boat than you can by private taxi.
