subject: Bangkok Night Life [print this page] Asia"s capital of cool, Bangkok is fast becoming a major player in the global night life radar. The city takes a second breath after the sun sets and the heavy traffic subsides to make way for a million shimmering lights, music and dancing. Be it a raucous night in a noisy bar, a refined dinner out at an elegant restaurant or a raunchy night out partying, Bangkok offers it all and much more. The unique eclectic blend of contemporary and old school experiences pave the way for a legendary night out.
Staying true to its olden day reputation of being a wild and naughty city with pole-swinging temptresses, notorious take-home pleasures and exotic boy-meets-girl creations are the lush driven Patpong , Soi Cowboy and Nana Plaza. The exotic splendour of the extravagant sets, flamboyant costumes and sensual music beats to complement the female form come together to form a dazzling performance, the Bangkok Ladyboy Shows, Bangkok"s own Moulin Rouge. Take your pick of the many hip and happening nightclubs in the city with exotic interiors and the finest DJs mixing crazy beats to cook up a storm on the dance floor. The gay population has as many options as the straight crowd in Bangkok and there is absolutely no excuse to stay in the closet.
For a more relaxed and romantic night out, take a cruise on the shimmering waters of the Chao Praya River, Bangkok"s River of Kings. Sip champagne and sway to the cool breeze as you admire the sparkling temples and bustling river life aboard a luxury cruiser or a teakwood rice barge. Or admire the city from atop the few rooftop bars. The serene atmosphere accompanied by a cold cocktail glass with the breathtaking vistas will be a perfectly tranquil end to a busy day. If you are not ready to give up you"re shopping just yet, head over to Khao San Road for some after dark shopping and then move on to one of the many pubs in the city for head-spinning cocktail or fine brown ale to sip the night away. If it a night away from the clubs and bars you seek, Siam Niramit Culture Show and dinner offers a true culture blast from the past of the splendour of the Land of Smiles performed on the world"s biggest stage with a cast of hundreds to keep you spellbound for 80 minutes.
After a wild night out come back to the cosy warmth of a Bangkok Luxury Hotel to be petted and pampered. Metropolitan Bangkok is a popular haunt among tourists and business travellers as it is more than just a Luxury Bangkok Hotel but a home away from home.
