A Young and Trendy Shopping Area of Bangkok
Siam Square is a great spot to explore if you’re looking for young fashion and affordable shopping in Bangkok. Located just across from Siam Paragon Shopping Mall, it has become a trendy and sophisticated area that caters more to young shoppers than the nearby malls. You’ll find plenty of emerging designers and fun boutiques lining a vast pedestrian modern avenue. Of course, discovering the hidden gems among the many shops is part of the fun!
Siam is known as Bangkok’s shopping heart, and any traveller will likely end up at Siam Paragon or its massive neighbour, CentralWorld. The area includes Siam Center, Siam Discovery, and the popular MBK. Siam Square is always bustling with young visitors, and it’s easy to see how much effort they put into their style. The music is loud, the screens are bright, and live performances are often held in the square.
The area is a maze of small shops spread over multiple floors. Thai fashion designers are particularly creative here, and a few shops will stand out with their striking displays, selling unique creations.
Dining in Siam Square
To complete the experience, there are plenty of eateries to choose from, ranging from a cheap but busy food court to popular spots like Som Tam, Hong Kong Noodles, and Thai Suki joints, making Siam Square the perfect hangout for Bangkok’s younger generation.
SkyScape at Siam Square
Located on the 12th floor of the SIAMSCAPE building, SkyScape Rooftop offers a modern, open-air setting with partial views of Bangkok’s skyline. It’s easy to overlook since the SIAMSCAPE building is at the edge of Siam Square, just across from MBK Mall, but the unique, huge orange brick building is hard to miss. The terrace is a vast open space with a sitting area lined with trees on one side, creating a sleek and chic atmosphere. It quickly became a playground for selfie lovers. The rooftop is especially captivating at sunset when the city lights begin to sparkle.
