Surprise her with a romantic welcome dinner date in Sukhumvit.
On your first night in Bangkok, you can choose to keep things relaxed and carefree as you settle into your holiday. But you can’t miss a romantic welcome dinner date at one of the best restaurants in Sukhumvit that has a cafe, bar and restaurant all in one space. The Deck is such a hit among tourists and locals for its vibrant atmosphere with the option to dine in the indoor or outdoor dining areas. They also have a menu with international favourites, so you can get acquainted with the city but still feel close to home with familiar dishes.
Explore the many temples around Bangkok.
You can’t visit Bangkok and not explore the many temples around the city. From the Grand Palace to Wat Arun, going to these temples lets you immerse in Thai culture and tradition. You can also dress up in traditional Thai clothing and have your couple photos taken by a professional that you can hire in these temples. You’re not only learning about Thailand with this activity, but you’re also getting souvenirs that will remind you of this romantic trip to the country.
Try the city’s fantastic street food scene.
Aside from the shopping, Bangkok is also known for its street food scene that has everything from classic Pad Thai to fried bugs. If you and your partner have very adventurous palates, you should allocate time to explore the city’s street food scene and try popular dishes like the green papaya salad, Pad Thai, curries and of course, mango sticky rice.
Enroll in a Thai cooking class together.
What better way to create another core memory for you as a couple than by learning to make authentic Thai food together? Thankfully, there are many places around Bangkok that offer Thai cooking classes. Here, you’ll be taught by locals how to make Pad Thai, mango sticky rice and other staple Thai dishes, so that you can re-create them back home. These cooking classes also teach you about creativity and teamwork while you’re having fun with your partner.
Finally, you can’t leave Bangkok without visiting the floating markets. These traditional markets are so unique since you’ll be riding on boats and going around canals where sellers sell their products, usually food and local crafts, on their own boats.
Are you ready for a trip of a lifetime with the love of your life? Bangkok will surely never disappoint, especially if you include these activities in your list.
