Hi peeps, today gonna finish my Day 1 Bangkok Trip. At first we decide to go to Chocolate Ville on the first day of the night. But turns out we were late and as you guys know Bangkok is having jam everywhere. Since we 630pm only start our teksi journey to Chocolate Ville, the whole road is jam like hell, lol. Plus the teksi driver seem not unsure of the place but still want jia jia si to fetch us go LOL. At last, thanks to my boy he made a good decision that we change our destination to Asiatique, The Riverfront and The Chocolate Ville we choose another day to drop by.
I love Bangkok Public Transport so much, because no jam and fast! So we reach BTS Saphan Tapin around 740pm and by 8pm we reached Asiatique. About the BTS Station Map, I used this version of the map that I google it online. I find it quite helpful and it might help you guys. As Sharing is Caring

Although the interchange part is a bit confusing and don't miss the interchange because their BTS was quite fast and their station is quite a short distance only. The most important is DON'T AFRAID TO ASK. The Light Green Path is the Sukimvit Line, The Dark Green is Sit Lom Line and The Blue Path is their MRT Line.
If you are heading to Asiatique, make sure you interchange from Sukimwit Line to Sit Lom Line from BTS SIAM and take the MRT to BTS Saphan Taksin.
[Bangkok.com] Asiatique has successfully combined two of the most popular shopping experiences in the city: a night bazaar and a mall. Ten minutes downriver from Saphan Taksin BTS station this once-bustling international trade port has been transformed, with over 1,500 boutiques and 40 restaurants housed under a huge replica warehouse complex. Open from 17:00, spending an evening here is no problem: you’ll have good fun browsing the boutiques, picking up gifts or something for yourself; you are guaranteed to find something you would like to eat and if this isn’t enough entertainment, shows are performed nightly: Calypso ladyboy cabaret and soon, a classic Thai puppets performance.
When you reach Sapan Taksin, you just follow the signboard of Asiatique word and if you are not sure feel free to ask around as there are many tourist and Bangkok is a friendly place for tourist.
You see the line is quite long but the Shuttle Boat they provide is able to fetch 20-30 person. So the line is really fast enough, we just waited for 5 to 10 minutes.
There are other hotel offer the Shuttle Boat also, make sure you didn't got on the wrong shuttle boat to the hotel.

Beautiful night view of the restaurant beside the pier.
We went in from this big entrance and it was kind of crowded.
Asiatique is really famous by their spacious small vintage shop you can found here. Is a good place for shopping and used up your money.
Our dinner and finally a good meal for the day. If you are looking for affordable meal in Asiatique it is better to dine at their foodcourt - International Food Circus.
After our dinner, we saw this Love statue of Juliet just outside their foodcourt area. We decided to try and lock our love lock here at the Gate of Juliet to represent our love.

Asiatique is really spacious as they separate the shop into 4 district to shop. Total there are 10 district to shop. I not even sure which section or area I has already been but it was a really good place for shopping and window shopping. If you wanted to go through every shop, it will need time around 1 to 2 hours here.
