Bangkok for me is also one of those places that if as a westerner you miss a little of that "mall culture" of preceding decades then you'll enjoy your time exploring these spaces. It makes a great mid day break from the humidity and you can catch an evening film at a couple of the superb cinemas.

Tip from locals: Avoid Terminal 21 food court during lunch break, almost impossible to be seated.

ICONSIAM has garnered 13 global awards at various world-class competitions, including the Best Design of the Year at the World Retail Awards 2019 hosted by the World Retail Congress, the first prize in the Best Shopping Center category at the MAPIC Awards 2019 in Cannes, France, the 2020 VIVA Best-of-the-Best Design and Development Award, and being ranked in the top four in the Best Shopping Center Category at the MIPIM Awards 2021.

Outside of the Sukhumvit area, we go to JJ Mall for local Thai gifts, etc, and then to ICONSIAM for the higher end experience.

My all time fave malls are Siam Paragon(best for groceries, movie, and food), Central Chidlom(best for shopping), Central Embassy(best for fancy movie experience and their food court “Eat thai”), and Em district(if you look for a quiet place to work and hold a meeting during the day) in that order.

Velaa(Chidlom) also is a lovely community mall to hangout but with less people during the day and at night assuming you all have been to “The Commons”.

For me...Sukhumvit area
1.Siam Paragon the best Supermarket
2.Central World the best biggest space for walk
3.Terminal 21 nice design and the best cheapest food court
4.MBK have everything you want
5.Emporium & Emquatier very nice view and quiet because everything too expensive over the top

Icon Siam - is the most beautiful Shopping Mall in BKK by far! Spectacular River Views from Restaurants too! Very good for evening stroll

[HesselFolkertsma]

I honestly just really enjoy the Chatuchak weekend market, for that damp busy market atmosphere to contrast the cool visits to the Siam shopping area. Siam has been my go-to for decades but next time I’m going to give the other malls that were unknown to me a visit… Bangkok hasn’t been sitting still I see!

[bengunn]

You surprised me. Shopping malls - yawn - I thought. You made these look genuinely exciting and worth exploring. I'll be heading to them when the heat or rain gets to be extreme. Thank you Chris.

[KippaxInThailand]

Excellent list 👍 Bangkok is full of surprises. One of my favourite cities. Can't wait to return soon 😉

I now live in Australia and these shopping malls make Australia shopping malls look cheap.

My favorite place to get away from the heat. I like Terminal 21 because it has my favorite beauty care, food court, restaurant (HAVE A ZEED), movie theater and clean bathrooms. I like Paragon for luxury shopping, clean bathrooms and it has great outdoor space for people watching . Their food court had a bad cockroach problem at the tables with the fish tanks on my two different visits. Siam or Central are great for shops and restaurants at the mid budget range. I hate MBK- I’m not impress with the bathrooms, food court, or the lack of friendly service. Tuk Tuk scammers are waiting outside. It does have a great place for me to get my nails done. I can’t wait to explore the new malls that have been built since my last visit.

[Guido]

Woooow! This video is very special and awesome. Thx very much. I really loved to watch it. Great and please more of that kind👍🙏

[ForRiel]

I don't shop and I don't watch movies, so the food court at Terminal 21 is my fave. 😁

[nkc]

Holy cow, I didn't know there were so many modern mega malls in Bangkok! I just hung out in Terminal 21 for all my time there 3 years ago.

[euroasiabtlimited]

Great list, I completely agree . I love the Emporium, I was there when it opened just love it .
