How to go to Asiatique The Riverfront Bangkok
Asiatique is one of the most unique destinations in Bangkok. It is located at the riverbank of Chao Phraya river and it converted old warehouses to shops, restaurants and shows. Thus, Asiatique opens its door in the evening from 5pm daily until midnight.
There are over 100 shops and dozens of restaurants. As the doors open in the evening, you won’t be getting the heat as well as the tan and instead you get the cooling evening weather and sometimes with chilly winds.
You can chill, dine and enjoy the scenery of Chao Phraya river or shopping or watch shows like “Muay Thai Live” at the Calypso Theatre. There are also rides like the ferris wheel available in Asiatique too.
