Thailand
Just a few blocks from the Blackpool-esque atmosphere of the Khao San Road, is the Phra Arthit Road. It has a variety of eateries where locals still go and a park with a sala at the end, by the little fort, which is a fantastic vantage point at night to watch the brightly lit riverboats and the smooching lovers. You'll even see aerobics at 6pm, but don't forget to stand for the national anthem. A haven.

Splash out on a gold class cinematic experience in the Siam Centre cinema.For around £6-7 you can enjoy the film in a cinema of around 20 people, in a reclining leather arm chair, with blanket and socks provided, table service plus a complimentary drink and nibbles.Definitely worth it to escape the buzz of the city.
