Shopping In Scintillating Siam Square Bangkok!
Never quite what meets the eye and ever-expanding, Bangkok is easily one of Asia’s finest holiday Meccas. In its vibrant landscapes one finds the best of both worlds as culture, entertainment and its contradictory identity merge to create a delectable city that has to be explored to be enjoyed.
And like in every global city, this is a hub where entrepreneurship, amusements and happy distractions find a place to call home. In New York, it’s Time Square, in Singapore it’s Sentosa and in Thailand, it’s Siam Square. Often dubbed as the “Shinjuku of Thailand" for its popularity with the locals, Siam Square is a shopping and entertainment epicenter of the Thai capital. Chockfull of all those lovable vices as luxury brands, skyscraping malls, giant music stores, cafes, restaurants and its very own Hard Rock Cafe, this anything but quiet region of the city is a veritable treasure trove for all concerned.
Located in the Siam District and born in the mid 1960’s this famed home of mega cinemas the Lido Theatre, Siam Theatre and Scala has transformed into one of Bangkok’s trendiest zip codes where the young and the fashionable hang out, set the trends and revel in the myriad of entertainment and shopping options available in abundance.
Renowned as one of Bangkok’s most popular shopping districts and all of South-East Asia for that matter, Siam Square is a shopaholic’s and bargain hunter’s dream come to life. A mega mall in every respect the Siam Discovery Centre and Siam Centre are unrivalled shopping complexes in the square while the MBK Centre or Mah Boon Krong offers those much sought after bargains and sales in addition to must-have consumer electronics. For those who are looking for a break from retail therapy, MBK also houses several cinemas, bowling alleys, karaoke lounges and eateries to suit every palate. Other must-see shopping venues include Siam Paragon with its Siam Ocean World and Gourmet Market, The Emporium, Gaysorn Plaza and Pratunam Market where silks, souvenirs and gold items are up for grabs at more than reasonable prices. The 500,000 square meter shopping paradise Central World Plaza is another highlight as well as sprawling Pantip Plaza which is the country’s foremost technology and computer goods venue.
Wining and dining is another activity which Siam square visitors should indulge in as the choices available are truly world class. With everything from luxury five star dining and household name global food chains to quaint local food markets, Siam Square guarantees a delectable variety that will leave one spoilt for choice.
Thai food connoisseurs will be wise to hit the many authentic Thai food stalls and markets at Siam which include Seefah, Lan Som Tam Nua, S&P and MK which offer guests a mouth-watering fusion of Thai and Chinese fare. Scala is another famous Chinese restaurant while Japanese food lovers should try Kobe Steak House and Fuji. Coffee fanatics can go to Siam’s Starbucks outlet and order their favourite cup of jo while the Thai coffeehouse chain Black Canyon is also on-site.
History buffs will not be disappointed as Siam Square contains an impressive collection of museums which includes the Jim Thompson House.
As one of the finest Bangkok serviced apartments to grace the landscapes of the Thai capital, the Royal President Bangkok is a luxury hotel without comparison. With first-rate services and a diligent staff it well deserves its reputation as a premier service apartment on Sukhumvit.
