In-Depth Information
Discovery Center
(cnr Th Phra Ram I & Th Phayathai, Siam Sq; 10am-9pm; Siam exit 1)
Siam Discovery Center ex-
cels in home decor, with the whole 3rd floor devoted to Asian-minimalist styles and
jewel-toned fabrics; we love the earthy, Thai-influenced designs at
Doi Tung
. The attached
Siam Center has gone under the redesign knife for a younger, hipper look. Youth fashion
is its new focus, and several local labels, ranging from
anr
to
senada*
, are on the 2nd floor.
SHOPPING CENTRE
Pantip Plaza
(604 Th Phetchaburi; 10am-9pm; Ratchathewi exit 4)
Pantip is five storeys of computer and
software stores ranging from legit to flea market. Many locals come here to buy 'pirated'
software and computer peripherals, but the crowds and touts ('DVD sex? DVD sex?')
make it among the more tedious shopping experiences in town.
