The Emporium, Bangkok

Kinokuniya is a huge bookstore. There are many sections for your own taste from fiction to decoration. There are imported magazines that you might not find at another bookstore.

What to buy: English books and magazines

What to pay: Please see the price tag...

This mall is a rather expensive place to shop. But if you're a brandname shopper, then go straight there. Other than being an upmarket place, it's a nice place to do window shopping. A good place to have lunch or dinner, since there are quite a few restaurants there as well as a food court. There is also a good bookstore called "Kinokuniya". They have varied sections. It's a big decent bookstore.

What to buy: Everything from head to toes.

What to pay: Seems like there is an on sale event every month, at least for the past few months. It's usually happening during the payday week.

This modern, air-conditioned shopping mall was like a world's away from the rest of Bangkok. All the designer labels like LV, Prada, Chanel had set up shop here. The mall also houses Kinokuniya and Asia Books bookstores, CD Warehouse, a multiplex cinema, and many other upmarket stores.

The anchor tenant is the Emporium Department Store which has a large shoe department for the ladies. The main attraction for me though, was Emporium Gourmet on Level 6. A supermarket/food court combination. Free tasting for several types of fruit were offered here and there were stalls selling all kinds of "street foods." If you ever wanted to try Bangkok's street food but wasn't brave enough, then your problem is solved here :)

The expansive seating area in the food court offered sweeping views of Bangkok. A great place to rest your foot and eat durians after a long day of shopping!

The Emporium shopping mall is full of upmarket shops selling all sorts of designer labels - you can severely dent your credit card here! There are also some very expensive jewellers.

Personally I come for the shops on the upper floors, including the Kinokuniya and Asia Books bookshops, and CD Warehouse. Just my thing! There's also a handy internet cafe, a department store, a food court, and a multiplex cinema (run by the SF Cinema chain).

It's open from 10.30am (10 at weekends) until 10pm, and it's very easy to get to - it's directly connected to the nearby Skytrain station with a footbridge.

Very classy and sophisticated with REAL designer brands and US Style Theaters. One of the nicest bookstore in town names as Kinokuniya has a great magazine sections and books. Also the clean and nice view along the Lumpini Park food court selection in the 6th floor in the right side of it.

What to buy: REal Branded Bags, shoes, and appliances. Like LV, Gucci, Prada and others.

What to pay: If you will buy LV bags an Amy Style will cost you $ 700 to more...
