Helpfulness
Located at Siam station where the two lines of the BTS SkyTrain interchange, this modern shopping complex is the latest in design and draws window shoppers even more than the buyers themselves. After all not many people are picking out a Lamborghini at the mall. The top floor Paragon Hall hosts expos and a Cineplex shows the latest movies and is home to Bangkok's only IMAX cinema. Siam Ocean World is in the basement and the food court has abundant restaurant options. Something is always going on in the adjacent Parc Paragon, often free concerts or late in the year some sort of beer garden or other product-sponsored venue. Siam Paragon is not to be confused with Siam Discovery, another smaller and less dazzling shopping complex right across Parc Paragon. The mall is open 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. and the ground floor restaurants are open until 11 p.m.

It's a pricey supermarket in the basment of Siam Paragon.
What to buy: It's mainly foodstuffs.
What to pay: Please beware that the displayed prices don't actually come up at the till. I.e., the displayed prices for goods are 'member prices', you need to be a long-term resident in Bangkok to get these prices, or Thai of course. When you shop at this place, the amount you will be charged is pretty much a lottery. It's an absolute disgrace and should be avoided.

We were there early in the morning just before the opening hours. Outside a long thick queue had formed but was for Krispy Kreme outlet (donut shop). There are many shops selling high end products. A large food court offering many international food is available too.
Within the Siam Paragon is the Siam Ocean World, one of the largest indoor aquarium.

Top department stores and luxury shopping malls are concentrated in the Ploenchit-Ratchaprasong area, namely Central, Gaysorn Plaza, Isetan, Zen, Erawan Bangkok, Peninsula Plaza, all of which together make the largest shopping promenade in Bangkok. Furthermore, Central World Plaza and Narayana Phand Pavilion, host the official handicraft centre selling items from all parts of the country. One excellent shopping mall I went into was the Paragon Mall which is very posh - it even has posh cars like BMW, Porsche, Maserati for sale on one level whilst having a very upmarket Gourmet Food supermarket and food court on the ground floor.

Siam Paragon , Incredibly massive shopping mall right at the heart of Bangkok, anchored by the Paragon department store and also featuring the Siam Ocean World aquarium, the largest in South-East Asia. The fourth floor has a very good (if pricy) selection of modern Thai arts and crafts, as well as a large Kinokuniya bookstore. Great eating options in the basement, including a gourmet supermarket, two food courts and a canal-lined strip of fancy restaurants.

Since Siam Paragon opened its doors in 2006, it has been the focus of luxury and high-end shopping in the heart of Bangkok. Located just next to Siam BTS station not far from the busy Ratchaprasong intersection, Siam Paragon is a mall that offers you the best in quality of products, food and entertainment.
What to buy: Siam Paragon is a huge departmental store which sells all the known international brands - Tony Hilfiger, Zara, Massimo Dutti, Lanvin, Gucci, D&G etc. At the basement of the complex is the largest aquarium in the Southern Hemisphere, Siam Ocean World. A vast array of restaurants serving delectable Chinese, Thai and Western cuisine can be found on the ground floor.
What to pay: Expect to pay top dollars for international designer labels. If you are coming from Australia or USA where sales taxes are high, you may find it cheaper to buy designer clothing in Bangkok. However, coming from Singapore, prices of these goods are not very much different from those in Singapore.

We got out of MBK and walk into the heat towards Siam Paragon shopping mall.
The seven storey mall is very impressive, it has touch of class and it is a large shopping complex. It was open in December 2005.
There are many expensive well known brand boutique shops fashion for men and women. If you want to buy Porches, Lamborghini or Ferrari, they have their own store.
Feeling hungry well don’t go too far; Siam Paragon has many food outlets. You will find foreign restaurants such as Fuji Japanese and many more in the food hall. Not far is the large gourmet market which is a grocery store.
In the basement you can visit the oceanarium huge tank containing all sorts of fish and coral reefs.
The Paragon Cineplex has 14 screen multiplex movie theatre and IMAX theatre. It also has large hall for concerts with 5000 seats. There are more to see like the traditional art section.
You can spend all day if you want.
What to buy: Treat yourself and go buy Ferrari at Siam Paragon Mall.

Siam Paragon is an upscale shopping mall in Bangkok, Thailand. It is one of the biggest shopping centers in Asia. Opened on December 9, 2005, it includes a wide range of stores and restaurants as well as a multiplex movie theater (consisted of 15 large size theaters with one of the them having the biggest screen and seating capacity in Asia) and the Siam Ocean World aquarium (the largest aquarium in South East Asia) and an exhibition hall and also an opera concert hall. It also has a large bowling alley and karaoke center. It is a joint venture by Siam Piwat, the company that owns the adjacent Siam Center/Siam Discovery shopping malls, and The Mall Group, which also owns The Emporium.
Ground Floor : Gourmet Market. Actually the Gourmet Market at Siam Paragon is what must be the largest supermarket in Thailand, about the size of a standard soccer field. It indeed has a lot of gourmet foods for sale, beside regular supermarket goods.
The bakery at Gourmet Market (operating under the name Le Boulanger) unexplicably is way below par (unless you like orange or pink colored sandwich bread). So if you buy an expensive salad (see below), you are advised to buy your rolls somewhere else.
A useful comparison is the salad bar which most supermarkets in Bangkok feature. Foodland sells at 7 baht/100 grams of salad, Tops Supermarket sells at 12 baht/100 grams and the Gourmet Market at Siam Paragon charges a whopping 25 baht/100 grams. Of course, with higher prices come somewhat more exotic fruits and vegetables to choose from.
MF (Mezzanine Floor?) : Beauty Hall
First Floor : Fashion Venue - The Lingrie Salon
Second Floor : Paragon Men - Sports Mall Global
Third Floor : Read & Write - Paragon Kids
Fourth Floor : Power Mall Ultra - Paragon Living
What to buy: The Paragon Department Store comprises 50,000 square meters. Another 40,000 square meters are devoted to retail shops selling luxury brand apparel, jewellery, electronics, musical instruments, audio equipment, sporting goods and exotic supercars, as well as a Kinokuniya book store. Some of the most renowned boutiques found in Siam Paragon include Gucci, Chanel, Balenciaga, Valentino, Kenzo, Hermès, Giorgio Armani, Jimmy Choo, Chloè, Dolce & Gabbana, Burberry and Salvatore Ferragamo.
The 25,000-square-meter Paragon Cineplex comprises a 14-screen multiplex movie theater as well as an IMAX theater and the Siam Pavali, a 1,200-seat theater suitable for theatrical and musical performances.
Siam Ocean World, the biggest aquarium in Southeast Asia, bigger than atoll reef in Singapore, is located inside. The entrance fee to the aquarium for children is 280 baht and 450 baht for adults.
The Gourmet Market is an 8,000 square meter grocery store on the lower level of the shopping center. It is adjacent to a food court area that has a wide range of restaurants and food stalls and this is MY FAVORITE PLACE in SIAM Paragon as you can buy food using Magnetic Swipe Cards which you load with credits at a counter and buy clean but cheap thai and international food for as little as 25 baht for different thai noodles and up to 150 for rice dishes, my favorite was cha yen (Thai Iced Tea), Khao niaw Ma Muang (Mango with Sticky Rice) for 60 Baht since it is Similar to "Puto Maya", (filipino version of mango with sticky rice). Off Course Philippine Carabao Mangoes are Sweeter! (as certified by the guiness book of world records)
What to pay: Very expensive to shop here! much like sak's 5th avenue or bloomingdales or neiman marcus, just buy souvenirs at chatuchak do the budget culinary tripping here!
Shopping Tip: For 5% discount on most purchases, you can apply for a Tourist Discount Card at the information desk on the ground level.
