How to get to Siam Center Bangkok? Best transportation strategies and shopping suggestions
Want to go to Siam Center, a famous shopping mall in Bangkok? The geographical location here is excellent and the transportation is very convenient. It can be easily reached whether on weekdays or holidays. Below are detailed transportation suggestions to Siam Center:
Transportation on weekdays: Taxis are more comfortable
If it's a weekday, you can take a taxi. Based on my experience from the Oriental Apartment Hotel (near Phloen Chit Station), the hop-off price is about 70 baht, plus a 20 baht tip to get there easily. This method is not only convenient but also avoids crowding during busy times.
During holidays or peak hours: it’s more efficient to take the BTS
During holidays or during rush hours, it is recommended to take the Bangkok MRT BTS instead, go to Siam Station, and then walk to Siam Center. It takes about 5 minutes to walk from Siam Paragon via the sky bridge, which is easy to save time and avoid traffic jams.
Shopping itinerary suggestions
The shopping area where Siam Center is located is very rich and suitable for planning a whole day's itinerary:
- morning: Explore luxury and boutique stores, starting with the high-end fashion Siam Paragon.

Siam Center 3rd floor: A paradise for Thai design brands to create unique personal styles
The 3rd floor of Siam Center is a must-visit for shoppers who love personalized outfits and distinctive clothing. There are many Thai design brands gathered here, showing rich creativity and high-quality production technology, which is amazing.
The rise of Thai fashion has already attracted global attention. As early as 2009, the former first lady of the United States, Michelle Obama, wore the work of Thai designer Thakoon Panichgul at a state banquet. The colorful and rich southern style became a symbol of Thai fashion. Since then, Thailand's status in the international fashion circle has rapidly increased, becoming one of the important representatives of Asian design.
Thailand’s support for local designers is also impressive. From the creative design center in Bangkok to major department stores setting up counters for local brands, Thailand not only provides a platform for designers to develop, but also successfully exports them internationally. In contrast, Thai fashion has far surpassed many Asian countries in terms of creativity and marketization.
▲ It happened that Mercedes-Benz held a VIP event here, and the Model was willing to let me take pictures! So cute.
▲ These special counters fall in the range of 700 to 1, and the design style is quite distinctive.

▲The design of the counters here is different from that of Taiwan counters. It is very lively and ingenious.
▲Because such a stage has hardly been seen in other places, I prefer the creativity in Bangkok malls.
▲ If you have the opportunity to come to Bangkok, Siam Center doesn't have to start shopping, but it's good to stroll around.
▲ This is an exhibition work done by Thai celebrities for charity at the time, taken by a well-known photographer.
