The Pink Line expanded the network of Bangkok metro by connecting the northern part of the city. Discover a detailed guide to the Bangkok MRT Pink Line with the route map, opening hours and timetable, fare and ticket options, and find tips for using the Pink Line train.
Bangkok MRT Pink Line SkyTrain
The Bangkok MRT Pink Line, or Northern Bangkok Monorail, is a newly opened cross-city link connecting northern areas of Bangkok. The Pink Line connects with the MRT Purple Line at Nonthaburi Civic Center Station, the SRT Red Line at Lak Si Station, and the BTS Green Line at Wat Pra Sri Mahathat Station.
The MRT Pink Line is designed to accommodate travel demand in northern Bangkok between the Min Buri district and Nonthaburi. The line doesn’t pass the city center and other areas frequently visited by tourists, but you might still find it useful during your visit if you will be going to the northern part of the city to watch Muay Thai fights at Lumpinee Boxing Stadium or to extend your visa at Bangkok Immigration Office.
Even if the Pink Line is MRT and it connects with the Purple Line of the original MRT system, it is not a fully integrated part of the metro system. Ticketing for this line is separate, and you won't be able to change trains without getting a new ticket, unless you are transferring from the BTS Green Line.
