The metropolitan madness of Bangkok holds a universe of shopping experiences. The sheer diversity of the shops and locales to visit is daunting, so if you’re thinking of an international visit, you should ideally look for a Bangkok hotel near BTS, the unique Sky-Train system, such as Anantara Baan Rajprasong Bangkok Serviced Suites.

The range of shopping malls in Bangkok are many, and can complement any lifestyle or budget, nonchalantly encapsulating any variety of goods and products. The largest mall in Thailand would be Central-World in Siam. This monster mega-mall contains the finest fashion stores, countless eateries and a massive fifteen-screen cinema among an ocean of shops and stalls catering to your each and every need.

If you wish for a shopping experience that is more in line with Thailand’s unique culture, then there are various night-markets for you to check out. Featuring a variety of stalls in a carnival-like atmosphere complete with live music. Consistently topping the lists is the Rot Fai Market in Srinakarin. This night-market is absolutely massive, and specialises in retro-paraphernalia, ranging from antique cameras to even car-parts. Additionally, the market contains much more encapsulating street-food to Japanese anime-items, to various types of clothing.

One place you definitely have to visit, is the enigmatic Papaya Vintage store, which is a massive warehouse that is bound to contain items from your child-hood, regardless of what era you were born in. With superhero figures to Darth Vader’s helmet to scooters from the sixties, this incredible warehouse is a treasure trove waiting to be discovered.

Thailand really is a place like no other, and when it comes to shopping, Bangkok truly is a force to be reckoned with since you’re bound to find more or less anything that your heart desires, along with a few more mind-blowing sights.
