MBK Shopping Centre – One stop shop for those pesky souvenirs

[Thailand Explore]

 

We all know the feeling! Two or three weeks of vacation seems like such a long time, we relax, enjoy ourselves, have fun and re-charge our batteries. Suddenly and all to quickly departure day raises it’s dreaded head and the panic starts for souvenirs for the folks back home. OMG, what should we buy, can we still afford it and where can we find it!!!

 

Have no fear for a visit to the vast MBK Centre with its warren of little shops and stores will enable you to resolve your souvenir shopping in a few hours! Very easily located next to the BTS (Skytrain) you can either exit at Siam and walk about four minutes or change trains and go one stop to National Stadium and you are at the doors of an Aladdin’s cave.

 

MBK Center has more than 1000 stalls and shops on it’s 6 floors where you can buy almost everything. As you enter from the SkyTrain the shops are larger generally selling higher quality products, however keep walking towards the rear of the mall and you will find tiny shops packed with everything that you need. Souvenirs are everywhere from cute elephant key rings, Thai silk, refrigerator magnets, soaps, scents, carvings and so much more. All are reasonably priced and haggling for better prices is expected!

Great place to buy gadget copies at expensive prices.  Amazing how many times i buy computer stuff here that does not work when I get home.  Here, you will be treated like a foreigner and probably cheated.  I find it much better to pay a little extra and get reliable things from normal shops

I used to like going there to buy clothes but I see that they are doing a makeover.  It is still cheaper to go to MBK for stuff instead of Siam.  

 

I agree though I do not go there to buy anything computer or phone related.  But then again I leave near ZEER LOL
