10 Cities That Are Even More Magical at Night (2 of 6)

2. Las Vegas, USA

Vegas is basically the capital of nighttime razzle-dazzle. When the desert sun dips, the Strip comes alive with flashing lights, dancing fountains, and replicas of famous landmarks from all over the world. You’ve got the Eiffel Tower, the canals of Venice, and a literal pyramid glowing in the sand. Add in the glow from Fremont Street’s canopy light shows, and Vegas at night feels more like a massive theme park than a city. The party doesn’t stop, and neither do the lights.

3. Bangkok, Thailand

Bangkok after dark is electric in more ways than one. Sure, there are the famous rooftop bars like Vertigo and Sky Bar offering 360 skyline views, but street level is where all the magic happens. Night markets hustling and bustling till morning, colorful tuk-tuks zipping through traffic, and temples like Wat Arun sparkle by the water. The Chao Phraya river is a real gem, too, as it reflects a mix of ancient tradition and modern life in its moonlit waters.
