<p>Time and tide really waits for no man. Before we know it, 2022 will zoom past in a couple of week&#8217;s time. ð±</p>



<p>Always a good time to take stock of things that happen, reflect on the things and plan that we set out at the start of the year. Be thankful (that we still have a job, alive and kicking) and count our blessings for the things we have.</p>



<p>For me? What other way than to close the year with a year-end trip to reward and give a pat on my shoulder for the job well done. </p>



<p>I am happy and fortunate to be able to walk past the departure gate once more to close off the year 2022. </p>

<p>It&#8217;s time again for a good foot reflexology after a full day walk before calling it a night.</p>



<p>I am already into Day 4 of my trip before I know it. I will be spending my time at Icon Siam for today. </p>



<p>Instead of travelling to Saphan Taksin BTS Station and taking a free river shuttle for the grand arrival entrance to Icon Siam, which I normally do. I have decided this time round to train to Icon Siam instead.</p>



<p><em><strong>How to go to Icon Siam via train?</strong></em></p>



<p>Instead of alighting at Saphan Taksin BTS Station (S6), you now alight at Krung Thonburi BTS Station (S7), one station after Saphan Taksin Station.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://suanmeizai.blog/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/20221214_102152645100529217758829-768x1024.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-13688"/></figure>



<p>Upon arrival, head towards exit 3 in the direction to Icon Siam.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://suanmeizai.blog/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/20221214_1022448389063568377846680-768x1024.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-13689"/></figure>



<p>Follow the directional sign guiding you towards the skytrain gold line station.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://suanmeizai.blog/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/20221214_103500-1024x768.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-13691"/></figure>



<p>Thereafter, board the skytrain gold line at Krung Thonburi G1 Station and take a stop to Charoen Nakhon, G2 Station which is right beside Icon Siam. Fuss free and convenient too. ð</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://suanmeizai.blog/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/20221214_104519-1024x768.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-13693"/></figure>



<p>After exiting the station gantry, you will immediately see the Icon Siam entrance. Though not arriving in grand style but we still get there. ð</p>
