The EM District in Bangkok

Emporium Mall in Bangkok is all about luxury brands, upscale restaurants, and sleek white interiors. Spread over 6 floors, this upmarket shopping complex houses plenty of high-end labels, including Chanel, Louis Vuitton, Dior, Prada, Hermes, Cartier, and Mont Blanc. You can also find a few mid-range fashion stores, a cinema, supermarket, food court, and a children's play centre. There’s direct access from the Phrom Phong BTS Skytrain Station via 2 entrances. Emporium Mall is also attached to the 5-star Emporium Suites hotel.

EmQuartier is easily one of Bangkok’s most glamorous and visually-stunning shopping mall. Even if you can’t afford designer brands, just the architecture is enough to lure in the crowds, with highlights including a multi-tiered façade lit up by giant LED screens, a rooftop garden, central atrium with cascading waterfall, a 100-metre-long ‘rainforest chandelier’, and skywalks with floor-to-ceiling windows.

Designer brands include Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Chanel, Prada, Dolce & Gabbana, Dior, Jimmy Choo, Valentino and Fendi. EmQuartier also has more budget-friendly options, such as Zara, Uniqlo, H&M, Gap and Super Dry.
