aromas and colours, and it’s here you’ll find some of the best bargains. For some great copy designer bags, head to the Night Market in Patpong. Although it's one of the world's most famous red-light districts, at night the bustling market draws many a tourist and backpacker shopping for that illusive bargain.
Massages are a dime a dozen in Bangkok, and you’ll be hard-pressed to find a bad one. Away from Khao San Road, however, where AU$5/NZ$6 massages on questionably hygienic mattresses might worry you, you can find some real luxury at The Peninsula Spa. Its romantic décor and settingwillbanishallthestressfromyour
shopping adventure in no time.
If you’re staying at a hotel with a
bar, catch the sun going down with a sundowner, or alternatively check out the views at Sirocco, an open-air bar on the 64th floor of an impressive skyscraper called State Tower. It’s the perfect place to wind down each day and see Bangkok city at night.
Looking to escape the crowds as you enjoy some traditional Thai food? Head
to the garden at The Mango Tree, a quiet retreat on Silom. Afterwards, chill out to the sounds of some soothing jazz at the popular Saxophone Pub. It’s a great place to meet othertravellersandswaptips. EV
