It is a casual street market, is a mid-negotiations, is a river full dining experience with high-end animation. That sums up the new Asia Bangkok shopping district, south of Chinatown, trying to be. If this seems a little too ambitious it is, but not disheartened, will spend an afternoon or evening.
Whether you are looking to bring the memories with friends and family, a good place for dinner back and a show or a goal to go outdoors overlooking the city and the river is in Asia really is a great place to . go It can be reached by public transport (ferry the river), family and bring to a part of town that are not always perceived by foreigners. And what attracts tourists and locals do not feel you are in a trap in various tourists.
Charoen Krung restored the oldest street in Bangkok, built around a pier, in 1900, Asia will evoke strong images of the cultural history of Thailand. Most companies are developed in large open buildings to replicate massive warehouses in parts of Bangkok. There are fake railway carriages and even statues of rickshaw drivers and dock workers lift bags of rice. As critics point out, the developers have their idea of Asia a little too far, resulting in an "experience" overproduction, the more like a visit to the amusement park with many breeds that feels a nostalgic look at a fascinating past and charming , All true, but in a way it does not matter, the problem only shows that Asia has to offer.
What we have to offer is this - is simply a trade flow outdoors with fun shops, a variety of restaurants and a very cool very Thai entertainment. There are well-organized market positions in a section, a larger variety of shops in another, a casual dining and many restaurants are alone. Many commercial establishments can be found be found in Asia transplants are set directly on the Suan Lum Night Market Street in Lumpini Park. This means fun cheap shoes, clothing, household goods tourists shirts and other souvenirs (many, many elephants), but also brand clothing by budding random cute, and local designers, cheap made metallic. There are stalls selling wellness products manufactured locally and even small resort where you can stop and enjoy a massage or facial.
As for the food, if you spend 100 baht 1000 baht dinner or find something. As the old adage night market is the main dining room, an open food court with dozens of vendors selling food, especially Thai. If you are looking for something less casual, it is also air conditioning sit-down restaurants (mostly local intermediate chains like Pizza Company and some Thai-Japanese restaurants), facing the sea, a brewery and a seafood restaurant. But you do not need to spend a lot to enjoy the magnificent views of the Chao Phraya River and skyscrapers of Bangkok in the north, and there's nothing stopping you simply take a walk along the river.
As for entertainment, Asia has two of the most entertaining cultural performances Thailand. The first, the Puppet Theatre Joe Louis, who lost his home when the old man closed the night market, the art of Thai puppetry with lek hoon Lakorn puppeteer. These artists produce stories Thai mythology with their dolls and doll difference where the puppeteers are hidden, here are part of the performance. The show is very nice and very fun for children and their parents.
Asia is also home to the Calypso Cabaret, one of the long race Breeders transvestite shows in Bangkok. If you were hoping to see the famous "ladyboys" dressed in drag in Thailand, dance and lip sync show to Asian classics and hits, you're in luck. Evening shows are fun and with more than 1,000 euros per ticket, definitely a unique experience in life a little expensive.
In general, it is hard to go wrong in Asia. Of course it will not win a prize of authenticity, but if you're looking for a fun, interesting place to spend an evening, you will be much to eat, shop and see to find.
