They say the best things come in threes. Starting with the Emporium shopping mall, we didn't expect it to evolve into such a vibrant hub of shopping and dining within The EMdistrict.
Right in the heart of Bangkok, IKEA Sukhumvitis a game changer. It's Thailand's fourth IKEA store, but the first to land smack in the city center, near the Asoke-Sukhumvit intersection.
Bangkok loves a themed mall. And Terminal 21 is no exception. Inspired by travel, the mall has an Airport floor, and every other floor is a different destination.
Feeling chic and trendy? The OG Phrom Phong shopping mall, Emporium, is as much of an institution of spending as say, Central.
