(OPENPRESS) Agoda.com, Asia's leading hotel booking site and part of Nasdaq-listed Priceline Group (Nasdaq:PCLN), has released a list of the top ten cities that offer the best nightlife excitement, as chosen by its customers. And with New Year's Eve quickly approaching, these cities are perfect for a quick getaway if nothing's been planned yet.
Based on feedback from over 113,000 respondents provided at the end of their stay, Agoda.com customers had the opportunity to rate the nightlife on a scale of 1-5, 1 being "poor", and 5 being "excellent". The top spot was taken by Bangkok, Thailand's energetic capital known for its tuk-tuk's, temples and street food, followed by Dubai, the gleaming desert city in the United Arab Emirates, and Boracay/Caticlan in the Philippines, famous for its white sand beaches and swaying palm trees.
Thailand placed again with Pattaya, the seaside town widely known for its raucous Walking Street and massive influx of tourists looking to blow off some steam, followed by Tokyo, Japan's neon-lit mega-city that's home to 13 million people. Thailand's largest island, Phuket, was next, followed by China's Special Administrative Regions of Hong Kong and Macau, the former known for its vibrant architecture and world-class food, and the latter famous for its massive casinos and Portuguese/Chinese cuisine.
Rounding out the list were Taiwan's modern capital of Taipei, and Bali, Indonesia's perpetually buzzing island paradise.
