Bustling, busy and loud, Bangkok certainly has a reputation for being a party city.
This city offers every traveller something uniquely Thai, whether it’s outstanding street food, cheap shopping, chaotic crowds, or wild nightlife.
Bangkok night life
The night and party scene in Bangkok keeps travellers hanging around. Food and drinks are inexpensive – think less than $1 USD for a meal, even less for a drink. Bangkok hotels and hostels can be found for cheap anywhere in the city, so grab a bed and stay the night – you definitely don’t want to miss out on the craziness of the city’s nightlife.
