Pratunam Shopping
Pratunam district in Bangkok is famous for clothes and shoes, giving it the nickname "garment district".
First, stop by Platinum Mall on Phetchaburi Road. With five floors of shops selling no-frills T-shirts, university uniforms and cheap clothing, it is a draw for many students and office workers who come here for the bulk discount.
Further down is Pantip Plaza, where you can get electronics gadgets, computers, mp3 players and others. IT City on the 7th floor is where you should go to get your electronic things that come with the manufacturer’s warranty.
A short walk across the streets is Pratunam Market, which has numerous stalls selling handbags, sunglasses, hand-made jewellery and beachwea. This is a great place to buy affordable souvenirs for the family.
