I went to MBK Center on the third day of my Bangkok trip.
I got 2 free BTS one day passes from my hotel, so I took BTS to from
Chit Lom and got off at National
Stadium station.
MBK Center is a shopping mall which you can buy the local souvenirs for
your friends.
[I guess it has different atrium as I see it is separated into different
parts on the same level, eg. chain stores, department store and local market (the
place you can buy the local made souvenirs)].
This is a shopping mall with
air-con and free toilets [for some places in Bangkok, you need to pay $$$ to enter
the toilets]. Inside the mall, it has many chain stores like Dunkin' Donuts,
Watsons, Boots, Naraya, etc. On the top level, it has a cinema. Also, it has
computer shops, handbag shops (but I won’t recommend my friend to buy the fake
handbags ), aroma shops, furniture shops, accessories shops on different
floors – this is a very local shopping mall, I saw many students with school
uniforms there.
However, the price for the local made souvenir is comparatively higher
than Chatuchak Weekend Market about 30 to 50 % (maybe the rental fee is much expensive).
But you can try to bargain with the sales, they will give you a good price~
I saw many students bought this food. Looks so yummy!
Dunkin' Donuts!!!
I bought the hand cream from Boots.
