Along the sidewalk of Rama I road and Phaya Thai Road, every evening an outdoor market is set up. The stores spans from the front of Bangkok Bank till all the way to the front of Lido Theater.
It is a good place to dig for cheap treasures; I found piles of leather goods, handbags and dresses galore here. If Platinum Mall is the best place to shop during day time, then Siam Square is sure to bag the best night time shopping spot award. If you have plenty time to kill , walk through Soi 1 – Soi 7 and visit the myriad of shops and boutiques selling local designer-label apparel, jewelry or photography gear.
Siam Square – the “Shinjuku” of Bangkok
loafers…drools…
Pro Shop at Soi 5 sells real leather sandals and high heels. I bought a pair of soft leather heel for ~ 850 baht (RM 85) which I thought is a pretty good bargain!
vintag-y bags…
Soi 3 is a good place to hunt for wedding gowns and wedding souvenirs.
There are also some designer clothing boutiques with better quality pieces and higher pricing.
The street stalls provides great fun for bargain shopping.
199 baht only?!!
I love these handmade kitties too! You can actually personalise it by hanging one’s initials on the neck chain. Can someone please get it for me at Siam Square?
That’s how we spent most of our Thai Bahts in Day 1 itself. Oh and don’t forget to complete your awesome shopping experiences with a good dinner at Som Tam Nua, Siam Square Soi 5!
