Bangkok is one of the ultimate shopping destinations with an abundance of shopping malls and markets. Here are some places where you would shop till you drop.

1

Chatuchak Market

A 35-acre space with about 15,000 stalls ranging from food, art, fashion, souvenirs, books, crafts and more, this has easily become the largest weekend market in the world! Despite the daunting size of the market and the crowd, they are well organized; the market is divided into different sections that specialize in different goods.

Asiatique: The Riverfront in Bangkok

This is an incorporation of two shopping experiences: a mall and a night bazaar under a huge warehouse complex roof. You have about 1000 boutiques and 35 restaurants to browse from and is much more organized. Thus, enabling you to find what you're looking for: souvenirs, jewellery, and clothing. The mall also offers entertainment every night.

Terminal 21 Bangkok

This mall has a travel theme and the architecture resembles a 21st-century airport (hence the name). Expect electronic displays and help desk receptionists that are dressed in the air hostess's uniform. Want to feel like you've explored the shopping centres from around the world in one place? Head over here!

Pantip Plaza, Pratunam

A paradise for all the tech and IT geeks because this is a mall dedicated to computers and tech gadgets only! If you are not an expert, it is advisable to take one along with you to help make decisions easier.

Siam Discovery

The aim of this mall is to get the shoppers to "discover" how the items that are being sold, would seamlessly fit in with any lifestyle. This concept is adopted by every stall in the mall making the display visually pleasing and is a great marketing idea.

Central World Siam

This is the largest mall in Thailand with more than 500 stores, 100 restaurants and 15 cinemas! Apart from this they also have a Kids' Zone, a learning centre so you can leave your children there and shop around! Its location is central to many a service apartment in Bangkok thus making it a convenient place to shop.

Central Embassy Shopping Mall

The one and only ultra-luxury lifestyle mall in Bangkok and is one of the leading shopping destinations in the world. It consists of cinemas, a six-star hotel, fine-dining restaurants and international designer apparels making your shopping experience here quite the luxury and indulgent getaway. It is located not too far from Anantara Baan Rajprasong Bangkok Serviced Suites.

Patpong Night Market

Quite popular amongst tourists due to it being located in Silom, a well-known nightlife district. It is usually very busy due to many Go-Go bars in the vicinity and is open from 6 pm to 1 am. The vendors usually quote a higher price for their items to tourists, so should you find anything interesting and worthy, remember to bargain as much as you can.

Chang Chui Plane Night Market

Another interesting concept, that takes the market scene to new heights, literally. There is an Airbus that is hard to miss at the centre. This space is dedicated to designers and artists to exhibit their creativity while simultaneously promoting sustainability of materials.

Siam Center

After having relaunched quite recently, the concept of the mall is to blend nature and technologically, which they have achieved beautifully. The most striking feature apart from that, however, is the fact they have digital fit-on! You can see how an outfit looks on you without the hassle of changing clothes!
