Promenade on the Riverside

Asiatique the Riverfront is Bangkok’s newest night market. The city’s old warehouses of the East Asiatic Company have been converted into a sprawling open-air complex of shops, restaurants and entertainment options. Walk around the riverfront and browse around—this is an upscale place so don’t go looking for cheap, street shopping. For dinner, try Baan Khanitha By The River—located in a white, colonial-style bungalow directly facing the Chao Praya River, this restaurant is known for its excellent Thai cuisine. Try the fish in neem paste, and end your meal with what is easily the best Thai dessert—sticky rice with mango and coconut Ice cream.
