I wanna go to Asiatique but I don’t know what to see…
This time to those who said …

Asiatique is one of the best night play spots in Bangkok!
I had a lot of fun when I came two years ago, but… It was level up!
Let’s play at one of night play spot that both tourists and locals can enjoy!

ASIATIQUE & Map
★Asiatique is the night market and night play facility in Bangkok!
Asiatique was built by renovating the area just off the Chao Phraya River, which was originally a dock for diplomacy.
there is everything like food shop, clothes shop, souvenir shop, and attractions…! There are about 1,500 stores here!
The really fun facility there is!!
ASIATIQUE Map
This huge night market is divided into several districts.
・Restaurants line up on the riverside『Waterfront district』
・Latest fashion shops and fashionable restaurants gather『Factory district』

However, if you enter it, you will not be aware of the district!
Because it is a quite large place and there are many shops, you can enjoy walking and watching there!
I would like to introduce the places where I went and watched, ate, and played.
ASIATIQUE FOOD
Food Court & Restaurant
ASIATIQUE has food from all over the world, but what I wanted to eat is Thai food!
Here, I’ll introduce the interesting stalls on the riverside, the Thai restaurant in the food court I actually ate, and the recommended mango shop for dessert!
ASIATIQUE FOOD①
Stalls on the riverside
The Thai food stall on the riverside has become more beautiful than it was two years ago!
Last time, it didn’t look so good because It had few people and there were insects on the rice…BUT!!
It became wonderful space! (It’s not so cheap thought!)
This time I ate at food court in another place that I did a preliminary survey, but there were many looks delicious food stalls here as well, so I’d like to post a photo!

From here, please take a look at “Kamlangsib”!
“Kamlangsib” is the main restaurant of Khao Man Gai, but most Thai food on the menu!
And what’s important is the TASTE… The Thai food was delicious no matter what I ate!
This is a really recommended shop, so I will post the photos and menus in detail!
“Kamlangsib” Location
“Town Square 6” in the food court
The entire place marked 6 on the map is a food court, and “Kamlangsib” is in it.
There is a shop in the middle of the area with a small yellow dot!
The landmarks are “blue tent” and “3 chicken marks”!

What I ate at Kamlangsib
We were pretty hungry so I ordered a lot! This is what I orderd!
Pan-Fried Thin Noodles (169B)
I love this Thai flat noodle! !!
The noodles are bigger than Pad Thai,It tastes delicious!!
Steamed Chicken(Khao Man Gai) Set (129B)
My husband ordered a set of Khao Man Gai! It’s about 450yen, so it’s cheap!
The chicken was delicious!
Fried shrimp
I don’t know the name because I haven’t taken a picture of the menu…This is a fried shrimp and mushrooms seasoned with garlic and soy sauce, which was incredibly delicious! !!
It was a service!
This is a stir-fried dish that looks like Kousin Sai, It was a service!
It smelled like garlic and it was delicious!
In addition, Thai rice fried rice was also great!
I didn’t take a picture, but the fried rice that my mother-in-law ordered was also very delicious!
It’s made with Thai rice, so it’s fluffy, and South-asia fried rice has a different taste from Japan or China! I love it!!
Payment: 6 foods + 6 drinks = 1176B ($37.6)
We ate a lot…lol And there was a 10% service charge (107B=$3.4)!
That was the recommended restaurant “Kamlangsib”!
ASIATIQUE FOOD③
Mango shop “MangoTango”
Speaking of Asia, Mango!
Mango is cheap and delicious in Thailand, there is a representative shop in ASIATIQUE!
That is “Mango Tango”! It is a fashionable mango shop!
“MangoTango” Location
Edge of “Chareonkrung district 1”
The Mango Tango shop is “Chareonkrung district 1”, near the star in the image, along the edge wall!
Tables and mango goods are lined up around the shops, so it’s easy to understand!
“MangoTango” Menu
All menus were about 105～220B(=$3.37～7)! The shop is fashionable, but the menu is also fashionable!
Here is what we ordered▼
『2-2 MangoTango+ExtraStickyRice』
MangoTango+ExtraStickyRice 220B($7)
On this plate were half fresh mango, mango pudding, mango ice cream, sticky-rice and coconut sauce!
After all, the fresh mango was ripe and sweet and the most delicious!
Service mango smoothie
A mango smoothie is included with the purchase of 390B or more for a limited time campaign!
Bill: 440B×2=440B($14)
I ordered two of the above plates and it was 440B with a service mango smoothie!
It’s very expensive to eat mango in Japan, so I’m glad I could eat mango, ice cream and pudding at this price!
Next, we will introduce the shows and attractions in ASIATIQUE!
ASIATIQUE Shows
Drag queen show＆Muay Thai
If you come to ASIATIQUE, I definitely recommend Thai shows!
At Asiatique, you can enjoy two shows, 【Drag queen Show】and【Muay Thai】!
Both can be seen for around $30, so please take a look!
ASIATIQUE Show①
Calypso Cabaret Bangkok
If you come to Thailand, you have to look at the Drag Queen Show!

Next, I will introduce the Massage shops and Souvenir shops in Asiatique!
If you play ASIATIQUE, please get a massage and buy a lot of souvenirs!
ASIATIQUE
Thai Massage Shops
Speaking of Thai, Massage!
There were some massage shops here in Asiatique! And a doctor fish shop!
If your body and legs get tired from traveling, let’s get a massage and heal!
ASIATIQUE Massage①
Riverside Massage Shop
There is a massage shop at the back of the street food stall on the riverside that I introduced first.
There is no doubt that it feels good as it massages right next to the river like this!
Is the price of the massage a little higher…
However, the massage shop here may be a little expensive.
▼The price was like this!
・30mins 200B($6.4)
・1hour 350B($11.2)
It’s cheaper than Japan!
But surely the massage shop next to Doctor Fish seemed a little cheaper…
ASIATIQUE Massage②
Doctor Fish
It’s a little different from a massage shop…
There is a doctor fish shop right in front of the Calypso Cabaret reception!
Doctor fish price
・Adult 20mins 200B($6.4)
・Child 20mins 150B($4.8)
And then…
Here is the massage shop that can be seen in the back!
ASIATIQUE Massage③
Next to doctor fish
It seems that the massage shop next to this doctor fish was cheap at about 150 baht! (I’m not sure…）
If you want to get a cheap massage, check here!
ASIATIQUE
Many Souvenir Shops
The largest number of shops in Asiatique is a souvenir shop!
From Thai clothes (Thai pants, children’s clothes, 100% silk scarves, and more!) to souvenir accessory shops, Muay Thai gloves, and souvenir sweets everything there are!
Souvenir shop Location
Soubenir shop Location
There are many souvenir shops in the “Factory District” and the “Chareonkrung District”.
Most of the “Chareonkrung District” are souvenirs. Souvenir shops are lined up beside the narrow road, so it may be better to search for what you want while walking◎
Recommended Souvenir Shop
MEI JENG SIENG
If you want to buy scattered souvenirs for your company or family, the souvenir shop “MEI JENG SIENG” near the Calypso Cabaret stairs is definitely recommended!
The appearance is like this↑
The reason why I recommend this is that Japanese Manufacturer sweets sold cheaply!(Safe & delicious!)
MEI JENG SIENG Location
MEI HENG SIENG Location
There is right next to the Calypso Cabaret stairs.
This is the ★ part of “Chareonkrung District 2”! Please check it out!
Souvenirs
Koala’s March(Mango flavor)
7 packs per box 100B($3.2)
You can buy 7 souvenirs for $3.2!
・Pocky banana flavor 5 box set 100B($3.2)
・Plits 5 boxes set 110B($3.5)
One box costs between $0.6 and $0.7. You can also give one box per person!
Besides, Thai food souvenirs are sold.
There sold various kinds of chili sauce and dried fruits!
Of course, there are other food souvenir shops, and there were some Japanese manufacturers like the ones above, but another shop was out of stock and expensive, so… MEI JENG SIENG was better!
Other souvenir shops are not particularly recommended!
Anyway, there are many shops and it’s chaotic, so if you have something you want, ask for the price If it is a good price, please buy it!
Souvenir Price Sample
There are few rip-offs at ASIATIQUE, but it is not without.
Many stores do not write the price!
So I will write down what I bought here for what price, so please refer to it!
And there are so many similar shops, so it’s best to buy at the cheapest place!
★Elephant figurine 150B($4.8)
The elephant figurine on the right side of this photo was 150B.
At Thailand airport, this elephant figurine was about 395B, so it might be a reasonable price.
★100% cashmere or silk scarf is 200B($6.4) even in large format
I bought the cashmere scarf and the silk scarf at different stores,the cashmere scarf shop originally had an asking price of 200B and the silk shop had an asking price of 600B!(←It’s rip-off!)
The reason why I could buy 100% silk for 200B is because I said “I can’t buy it without 200B!”(There was only 200 baht in my wallet…lol)
By the way, the airport price was 390B for a 100% silk scarf, so a scarf of 200B would be a reasonable price!
★Ideal for Thai pants is 100B($3.2)
150B at worst($4.8)
I want to wear Thai pants as loungewear in Japan! So I bought a normal type Thai pants at Asiatique, it was 150B.
Even in the city, Thai pants are cheap at 100B and expensive at around 200B, so it’s reasonable price up to 150B, but the ideal price is 100B!
I bought three, but I got more one as service, so I might have bought 100B!
ASIATIQUE
Money Exchange
There was only one currency exchange shop I saw, but there are about 4exchange shops in Asiatique.
I haven’t seen the rates, but I don’t think there’s anything wrong here because the rates aren’t bad at any of the money exchange in Bangkok.
Money Exchange Location
Near gate 2
There are Gates 1-3 of Asiatique on the road side, there is Gate 2 just around the area marked “A” on the map.
ASIATIQUE
