Asiatique (Bangkok At Night)

Assalamu'alaikum,

Masih dengan kisah Bangkok. Rombongan hamba pada malam kedua di bawa ke  Asiatique, tempat popular dalam kalangan pelancong tempatan dan antarabangsa dan terletak bersebelahan sungai. Teringat Kuching, Sarawak yang 'Riverfront' nya juga popular Ia dianggap tempat utama untuk dikunjungi pada waktu malam.  Kuala Lumpur tidak memiliki pusat sebegini...Selain membeli-belah, anda boleh lepak-lepak, naik Bangkok's Eye, ... Kalau nak makan kena cari yang halal... 

Dari dalam bas

Dah sampai

Urut kaki dalam akuarium dipenuhi ikan

Nak tengok Muay Thai - bayar saja

Bangkok's Eye...hamba yang beri nama...

Terdapat lebih 1500 kedai...sediakan duit saja...

Kalau Ringgit Malaysia kukuh, sebahagian pekedai menerima RM

Sebahagian besar barangannya adalah 'Made in Thailand', walaupun ada juga yang dibawa dari China

Asiatique has successfully combined two of the most popular shopping experiences in the city: a night bazaar and a mall. Ten minutes downriver from Saphan Taksin BTS station this once-bustling international trade port has been transformed, with over 1,500 boutiques and 40 restaurants housed under a huge replica warehouse complex. Open from 17:00, spending an evening here is no problem: you’ll have good fun browsing the boutiques, picking up gifts or something for yourself; you are guaranteed to find something you would like to eat ...

The easiest and fastest way to get there is via boat. Take the BTS to Saphan Taksin and jump on the free shuttle at the end of the pier. It only takes ten minutes, and the boat runs until 23:00. Taxis are not recommended as the traffic can be terrible in this area. From the boat you step off onto a long boardwalk which runs for 300 metres that looks romantic once the sun has set. Wide streets run between each warehouse and Asiatique provides retro props for photo opportunities: a reproduction tram car, anchors and a push cart. The decor does feel a little overdone on occasion and not quite in keeping with the designers’ plans to evoke nostalgia for the 1900s but it’s so well planned, clean and spacious that the lack of history doesn’t really matter.
