Arun Residence
Most visitors to Bangkok have heard that the iconic Wat Arun on the riverside is also known as The Temple of Dawn, but the best time to capture its beauty is at sunset.
And the best place to witness the sun disappearing precisely behind the monument is from the balcony of Arun Residence, a great restaurant located right across the Chao Phraya River. For this exact reason, the hard-to-find Arun Residence is now an increasingly popular restaurant and reserving a table has become necessary.
Serving excellent Thai food, it's the perfect place to dine with friends on a trip to Bangkok, or even for a romantic tete a tete. The restaurant is quite narrow, but there's plenty of space over the 3 floors and wooden terrace.
Open: Monday–Thursday from 11am to 10pm, Friday–Sunday from 11am to 11pm (top floor bar opens 5.30pm)
