About This Activity

Asiatique The Riverfront is Bangkok's most scenic night market, set in restored 1900s warehouse buildings along the Chao Phraya River. Over 1,500 boutiques sell fashion, handicrafts, and souvenirs alongside 40+ restaurants serving Thai and international cuisine. Evenings peak after 7pm when the giant Ferris wheel lights up and Calypso Cabaret (showtimes 7:15pm and 9pm in Warehouse 3) begins performances. Take the free shuttle boat from Saphan Taksin BTS station — the 10-minute river ride at sunset is half the experience.

Seasonal note: Open daily year-round from 5pm; the outdoor setting is best during cooler months
