What happens when you combine Thailand’s famous “Night Markets and Bazaars” with a modern-day shopping mall?…  You get Bangkok’s  Asiatique The Riverfront!  Built on once Thailand’s first international port, is now a shopping complex made up of 1,500 shops, 40 restaurants, and two cultural theatres, inspired by the industrial design of the Colonial period.

Open from 5 pm to Midnight, Asiatique is divided into four shopping districts:

• Chareonkrung – Modern and traditional Thai culture through preforming arts long with the main shopping area (souvenirs, handicrafts, jewellery, and clothing)
• Town Square – International dining scene and sports bars
• Factory – Cutting-edge fashion and gadgets (including Apple store)
• Waterfront – City’s longest public boardwalk (300m) is lined with restaurants and events venues.

Sky Asiatique Ferris Wheel

Another cool attraction at Asiatique is the Sky Asiatique, a 200 foot tall, 42 gondola Ferris wheel overlooking the shopping complex.
