5 Ways to Spend Valentine’s Day in Bangkok

Valentines Day is right around the corner! Wondering what to do on this special day? Here are our top 5 ways to spend Valentine’s Day the land of smiles.

  • We all know it’s almost impossible to see stars in Bangkok. However, did you know there’s a planetarium in town? The newly renovated Bangkok Planetarium just reopened January 5th. You can take your loved one stargazing right in the heart of Bangkok. It’s located in the Ekkamai area, right next to the Bus Terminal on Sukhumvit.
  • How romantic does a picnic in the park sound? Is it even doable in Bangkok? Obviously you have to take the weather in account and what park you want to go to — but we suggest hitting up Gourmet Mart at EmQuartier, buying a bottle of wine then going to Benchasiri Park. Bring a towel to lie on and just relax with your loved one. A simple yet dreamy day date idea.
  • If you’re looking for a nice night out and about in town, why not start with dinner at Audrey. A cute, cozy restaurant tucked in Thonglor, Audrey is known for their delicious food and desserts. Try their Valentines Day themed desserts… The Sakura crepe cake is to die for. There’s always a queue so book a table through Hungry Hub to avoid that! After, make your way to Wanderlust– an alternative, artsy bar located on Thonglor Soi 13. It’s intimate and has that chill date night vibe. Plus it’s a perfect instagram spot!
  • For something a little more unconventional, try going to Talard Rot Fai (The Train Market) behind esplanade. It’s not your typical Valentine’s date spot but it makes for a memorable adventure. Get your hands messy at Holy Shrimp — a peel and eat, crab shack type of place. Then explore the bars lined up along the back end of the market. Limitless options, great deals (3 Leos or 250 baht at some bars) and tons of food.
  • Now that Netflix is finally available in Bangkok, why not just Netflix and chill at home? It’s simple — pop a bottle of wine, order from Food Panda and switch on a movie. Don’t start watching Making a Murderer on Valentines Day. Trust me, it will stress you out. Opt for Meet the Patel’s, a real life romantic comedy that will make you laugh!
