As the Thai Kpop idol — Lisa — has sung in her latest single Rockstar: “BKK so pretty”.
Bangkok does look pretty, and it’s getting prettier with this new addition — Phenix Pratunam Mall.
It seems Bangkok has learned a thing or two from Singapore when it comes to integrating greenery with architecture as this mall is a perfect example.
That’s right, it’s a garden-inspired mall. And, it’s a huge one, spanning 68,000 square metres across six levels.
No, scratch that, it’s seven levels as a rooftop garden awaits you at the top floor. Here, you can enjoy scenic views of the Pratunam area and even pray at the temple (you heard that right).
Since Bangkok is honourably known as a food paradise, it’s only right for Phenix Pratunam Mall to bank on this by offering a food-centric space for everyone.
Foodies, you’ll rejoice at the fact that there are over 200 food and beverage outlets, ranging from cafes and casual restaurants to upscale fine dining venues.
Some of Thailand’s local beloved food establishments like Pad Thai Fai Ta Lu, April’s Bakery and R-Leaw Noodle have housed themselves here, making it a convenient one-stop shop.
Looking for a place suitable for date nights? There’s the Bar Italia by Gie Gie and Nua Tair. On the other hand, Loong Mala Hotpot is the place to gather with friends and enjoy some spicy Sichuan hotpot.
As you head to the 4th floor, you’ll find one of Bangkok’s largest halal food courts. With a wide selection of cuisines available, plus stalls brimming with desserts, fruit juices, bubble teas and more, it’s impossible to whine about not having something to eat (let’s face it, that’s one of our favourite pastimes).
That’s not all as you can look forward to food bazaars and food-related events being held regularly. If you plan your trip right, you might just catch one of these events that’ll surely make your trip even more memorable.
Aside from food, there are also lifestyle shops. Get ready to shop ’til you drop — literally. These shops offer more than 2,400 brands and products, and they’re all available at wholesale prices.
If we count on Platinum Fashion Mall for our affordable fashion needs, we can count on Phenix Pratunam Mall for our lifestyle goods, especially tech stuff.
At the moment, the mall is still in its early stages so not all shops are open. Regardless, it’s still worth a visit to explore the space and get a sneak peek at what’s coming soon.
What’s more, it’s just a 20-minute train ride from Siam Square and a short walk from Pratunam Night Market, so there’s really no excuse not to.
Will this mall make it onto your bucket list?
