Asiatique The Riverfront
November 10, 2013
This year trip to Bangkok , we just plan for food and shopping dint want to visit any places except for this new night market. Asiatique The Riverfront is the newest Bangkok Night Market, opened in May 2012. Asiatique has successfully combined two of the most popular shopping experiences in the city: a night bazaar and a mall.
Once you enter the hangars, you appreciate the design even more; this is probably the only market in Bangkok where you can find a stall by looking at a map. Asiatique is split into four categories to help you find what you are looking for without too much hassle.
How to get there: By boat. Take the BTS (skytrain) to Saphan Taksin station. Then walk to the river. There you can get on a free ferry boat to Asiatique The Riverfront – it’s about 15 minutes and you get to enjoy the nice view of the Chao Phraya river. The boat leaves from the Saphan Taksin station every 15 minutes, starting at 4:30 p.m. and the last boat leaves from the Asiatique pier back to Saphan Thaksin at 11:30 p.m. It’s best to avoid going by taxi, because the road that leads there suffers from chronic traffic jam.
