EmQuartier
EmQuartier is easily one of Bangkok’s most visually stunning and unique shopping destinations. Beyond shopping, dining and entertainment, the architecture alone is enough to lure in the crowds. Highlights include a rooftop garden, central atrium with cascading waterfall, a 100-metre-long ‘rainforest chandelier’, skywalks with floor-to-ceiling windows, indoor garden and multi-tiered façade adorned with LED screens. The forecourt plays host to a roster of ever changing outdoor markets too.
Emporium
Emporium Mall across the road is festooned with luxury brands, upscale eateries and sleek design (it was refurbished less than two years ago). Spread over six floors, this upmarket shopping complex houses a plethora of high-end brands, a few mid-range fashion stores, lots of jewellery outlets, a pharmacy, bookstore, several beauty clinics, a cinema, department store, supermarket, food court and a children’s play centre! The mall is also attached to the five-star Emporium Suites hotel, with stunning views over Benjasiri Park.
EmSphere
Last, but not least is EmSphere, which may well be the most ambitious mall of all! This incredible shopping Mecca is set to feature an impressive glass dome design as its central building, with two other structures on either side. Like its sister properties, it will feature a mix of luxury fashion, lifestyle brands, entertainment offerings and upscale dining. We can’t wait until this one is unveiled!
