Asiatique, The Riverfront (Bangkok, Thailand)

Address: 2194 Charoen Krung Road, Wat Phraya Krai, Bang Kho Laem, Bangkok 10120, Thailand
Opening hours: 5.00p.m. - 12 midnight
Website: Asiatique, The Riverfront

Asiatique, The Riverfront is a relatively new night market, opened in May 2012. It has a large shopping area and is a nice place to chill out at night. It is popular with the locals and tourists. With live bands performing at almost every corner, you can enjoy the music while you eat in their restaurants/pubs or when you're shopping! Jerald and I headed here on our second night (11 Dec 2014) in Bangkok.

The picture below shows you how big this place is. There are 1500 shops and 40 restaurants! You will definitely end up buying things you need and don't need!

How to get there: 

- By Boat

We alighted at BTS Saphan Taksin Station and proceeded to Exit 2.

It led us to the ferry terminal. 

 Look out for this and join in the queue!

This is our shuttle ferry. It operates from 4.00p.m. to 11.30p.m., at 15 minutes interval. The last ferry leaves Asiatique at 11.15p.m..

Cruise spotted along Chaopraya river.

We were enjoying the cool breeze and river view during our 10 minutes ferry ride. Good time to relax after a whole day of shopping!

Finally, we reached our destination.

My favorite 'Yummy Crepe'! The crepe is one of the must-eat when you're at Bangkok!

I always buy their Banana-Chocolate Crepe! อร่อยมาก (very delicious)!
I think I ate this at almost every night market I went to in Bangkok and Chiang Mai.

We decided to try this spicy fried chicken from 'Chicken Pop'.
Personally, I found it too spicy to enjoy the taste of the chicken.

Time to spam some photos of the shops here.

Extremely crowded shop filled with foreigners!

 Racing tracks for the kids...

… and this for the adults.

Love the pretty lightings.

After spending 2 to 3 hours there, we decided to sit on the benches beside Chaopraya river for some couple time. Definitely a romantic place for couples too. :)

This is my first visit and I'll definitely be back again, especially for the Ferris Wheel ride which we gave a miss. Don't forget to drop by this wonderful place if you're going to Bangkok!

Let me end off this post with 2 wefies!

:)

Favourite photo taken that morning! #nofilter #goodhairday

Only the wefies are taken using my LG G3 phone which never fails to make our faces look flawless!
