Weekend’s here. While recurring drinks in hand tend to render the very idea of a bar’s atmosphere irrelevant (and we hardly need much more than a bottle of whisky to create a bar around ourselves) even we’re willing to appreciate those who thought to take the bar experience to a new level. There exist a few taverns in the world spectacular enough to make one's head spin without any alcoholic boost. These range from architecturally astute marvels to exclusive hidden bars in the least likely of places to an entire bar based on a movie. While you are busy perusing this list, we're drawing up a strategic plan to hit all of these astounding bars as a part of our ever-increasing bucket list. Hop on the bandwagon if you must, but we doubt any of us should be driving.
1. The Water and Wind Bar, Binh Duong, Vietnam
A thatched bamboo hut made in the middle of a lake in the Binh Duong province of Vietnam is one of the most innovative bar concepts we have ever seen. Stepping stones in the lake give way to the entrance of the Water and Wind Bar with a circular opening at the roof for hot air ventilation.
