Valentine’s Day is becoming more and more popular in Thailand every year. The holiday has its roots in an ancient Roman holiday — thought to be the beginning of a fertility festival — but today the cute heart motifs and the feel-good expressions of love have made it universally appealing. If you are celebrating with your sweetheart this year in Pratunam, you’re in luck. There are tons of options for a date night, or just a solo excursion, right here in our neighborhood.
To start, get your Valentine a card, chocolates, flowers, or another gift. Pratunam is a great neighborhood to search for bargains and unique items, and we recommend Platinum Fashion Mall. There are endless options for clothing as well as shoes, bags, jewelry, and other accessories which would make lovely gifts. You might also find vendors selling beauty and personal care products such as lotions, shampoo, makeup, face masks, and more — also great choices to give your loved one a pampering.
For an upscale dinner date, we recommend looking into the options at the Gourmet Hall at Siam Paragon. These are premier dining establishments with a more formal atmosphere than a food court or a street food market, but centrally located in the air-conditioned mall. Café Chili offers Isaan cuisine, Crystal Jade has a Cantonese menu in an opulent setting, and there are plenty of coffee and dessert stands for a sweet end to an evening out.
You may also want to go out for a casual day-time excursion — Pratunam Market is a great place to start with its endless stalls and delicious array of fresh food. After a day walking and sightseeing, you can always come back for a quick dip in the hotel pool.
We hope this Valentine’s Day is a special one for you and your loved one, and an opportunity to spend time together and enjoy what Bangkok has to offer. Happy Valentine’s Day!!
