The Sirocco sits out like a bird nest 64 floors above the hectic streets of Bangkok. After spending an evening there I have no doubt it’s one of top 10 rooftop bars in the world.

LEBUA SEEMS almost like a Steve Wynn casino. They’ve got a bunch of different little restaurants and bars. Each has its own specialty: sushi, oysters, fancy whiskey, cigars or martinis, but all of them share the best view in BKK.

    Wow- I really did think Condesa DF in Mexico City (one of the bars mentioned in that best rooftop bars in the world article) had the best rooftop bar. This one, though, looks like it takes the cake. Beautiful photos.
