Bangkok doesn't get enough credit as a romantic city. As far as honeymoon destinations go, the likes of Phuket and Koh Samui definitely have it beat. Not to mention other capital cities like Paris, Rome, Athens, and more. So will couples not enjoy their time in this city? Of course not! Bangkok has its fair share of romantic spots too. There's the Grand Palace, the Bangkok Tree House, Chocolate Ville, Lumpini Park, Wat Pho Temple, and more. You'll find that all these amazing places have a little romance to offer couples who are lucky enough to visit them.
Grand Palace
Since it's the most popular landmark in Bangkok, it's pretty hard to see the Grand Palace as a romantic spot. It's a great place to visit, sure, but with so many people around, how can you and your special someone ever enjoy your time here? Well, just focus on the beauty! There's no doubt that Bangkok's Grand Palace is among the most beautiful attractions, not just in the city, but in the world. With its bejeweled temples and ancient architecture, the entire estate is a feast for the eyes. One worth exploring with your partner as you spend the day together.

Wat Pho
From the most famous landmark to the most famous
temple in Bangkok. Wat Pho is another popular tourist spot in the Thai capital that never fails to draw hundreds if not thousands of visitors every day. It's home to the golden 'Reclining Buddha,' a 46-meter statue that will take your breath away at first glance. Though Wat Pho is undoubtedly one of the most well-visited temples in the city, there's still an air of mystery and intimacy in it. It's as if the moment you get inside, it'll just be you, your partner, and the Buddha.

Chocolate Ville
All you need to know about Chocolate Ville is that it will charm your pants off! Modeled after an old-fashioned European city, this theme park combines the nostalgic appeal of the Western world with the flavors of Thai food. After all, the place is mostly just a treasure trove of great foodie hotspots. Be it Thai or foreign cuisine, you'd definitely get your fair share of delicious food here. And after you and your significant other have enough, you can shed the weight you just gained by going around and taking selfies with all the attractions. Imagine the
travel inspo you'd get to share from here!

Lumpini Park
Spending the day at the park is always a good date idea. Especially when that park is as beautiful as Lumpini Park. Spanning 142 acres, this was the first public park to ever open in Bangkok. And of course, there are lots to do here. You and your partner can pack along some
Thai food and go on a cuisine here. Or if you're both athletic, why not play some sports on the open field? Working out together is also a good option, even more so when it's so nice out. And for a more cliche but undoubtedly romantic idea, you can also rent a boat and sail on the park's artificial lake.

Bangkok Tree House
You probably never expected glamping to be one of the
romantic things to do in Bangkok, did you? The Thai capital is such an urban metropolis, after all. Where could you ever go glamping in this city? At the Bangkok Tree House, of course! Located in the Phra Pradaeng District of the Samut Prakan province in Thailand, which is fairly near the capital city, this place offers a nature-bound escape from all the hustle and bustle. You and your special someone can revel in all the tropical botanical bliss of the resort, especially if you go for an outdoor canopied bed on top of the lush forest.

The Gardens of Dinsor Palace
From one natural oasis to another, the Gardens of Dinsor Palace are also among the most romantic spots in Bangkok. Though it's located at the heart of the city's Watthana district, known for its big malls filled with luxury shopping, the place is set up to serve as the perfect tropical retreat in the middle of the bustling metropolis. The old-fashioned villa, the tall lush trees, and the artificial pond with swans all make up a dreamy escape that almost feels unreal. Fortunately, however, it is real. And you and your partner can have the perfect dinner date here!

Moon Bar
It's no secret that Bangkok's nightlife is one of the best in the world. And for couples looking to have a food time while out on the town, why not consider going to Moon Bar? Perched atop the luxurious Banyan Tree Bangkok hotel on Sathon Road, it's the perfect cosmopolitan hotspot to cap off your romantic
day in Bangkok. Here, the drinks are great but the view is even greater. Seeing the Thai capital sparkle with its city lights under a sky full of stars will make you feel some sort of way! One that might even get you in the mood when you get back to your
luxury home afterward!

Asiatique Sky
Speaking of great views of Bangkok, there's also Asiatique Sky, a soaring Ferris Wheel located on the busy Charoen Krung Rd. Serving as the Thai capital's answer to The Eye in London, it's more of an observation wheel than a typical theme park ride. Since it's easy to get pretty intimate inside any of the wheel's 42 gondolas, you can enjoy each other's embrace as you look at the stunning view of Bangkok at the peak of the ride. Doesn't that sound like a great way to end your date in the city?
