- LInda DPerth, Australia14 contributionsTop notch place, shopping experience. Amazing gourmet marketplace downstairs. An experience to savour. Designer and labels upstairs.

- pierceorMelbourne, Australia35 contributionsGreat place for shopping and you could spend most of the day here.

- Htet Htlan HtaySingapore, Singapore15 contributionsMassive mall. Despite being an expert navigator and planner, I lost track of time and my sense of direction. However, being a big mall, it has so much to offer and you can spend an entire day there just shopping and eating many AUTHENTIC Thai food as well. Beware of the massive price inflation in this mall for everything as it is a tourist destination.Written July 1, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Wang S3 contributionsVery beautiful mall and we like shopping. There is luxury and food court. Chinese food also available. I love it😊😊😊😊Written October 9, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- MrtahMuscat, Oman216 contributionsPlatinum Fashion Mall in Bangkok is the go-to spot for fashion lovers, especially those on a budget. Located in the lively Pratunam district, this massive indoor mall is packed with hundreds of stalls offering a wide range of trendy clothing, accessories, shoes, and bags at affordable prices.
The mall is known for its great deals, especially if you buy in bulk, and haggling is common, though prices are generally already low. The quality varies, so you can find everything from high-street fashion to more budget-friendly items.
Shopping here can easily take up your whole day, but don’t worry—there’s a food court on the top floor with a variety of tasty and affordable options, plus plenty of cafes for a quick break.
Located near other popular shopping spots and easily accessible by public transport, Platinum Fashion Mall is a must-visit if you’re looking to score some fashionable finds without spending a fortune. Just be prepared for crowds, especially on weekends!
It is a must visit if you are looking for affordable clothes with good quality.Written August 29, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Some parts have a skywalk which was so convenient during the rainy days. I also used the BTS to go to the riverside. It had a covered walkway. You don’t have to worry about the rain. My last day in Bangkok, I took the BTS to the airport. It was very easy. I highly recommend it!Written October 4, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Earl LamptonKennewick, WA39 contributionsGreat experience for little kids. There were lots of interesting sea life. They have several types of sharks and my daughter loved seeing them, I paid for an upgraded visit that was supposed to include a clear bottom boat ride and never figured out where that was.Written September 22, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- TaherAlbaghliJulianKuwait City, Kuwait1,923 contributionsI was looking forward to visiting this museum. It was as beautiful as I expected. This museum displays paintings, statues, and some artifacts from several countries such as India, Thailand, and Britain.
Cons :
1-Unorganized, for example, in a hall you can find a surrealist painting and a portrait painting
2- There is no classification in the tickets, as some collectibles are for adults only
3- Museum not on the BTS route.
Pros:
1-Cheap ticket.
2-Friendly and helpful staff.
3-Many of the visitors are students of the College of Fine Arts or those who know art, and it is nice to talk to them about the paintings.
4-Taxi stops near the museum gate.

It was a great place to escape from busy Bangkok. They offered a very educational exhibition but not too much information. The venom extraction was worth seeing, and it is recommended.Written August 15, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- SurzenLondon, UK186 contributionsVery useful and recommended visit to this huge museum on Thai history starting approx 5,000 years ago - and with help from 2 very knowledgeable ladies we had a great tour in English which lasted well over 2 hours!
English tours are certainly available on Wednesday, from 09:30and they are free of charge as run by volunteers; entrance however was THB200 but was money well spent.
After all the walking, up and down stairs and between builduings there us a small family run Thai restaurant, extremely affordable and with good food (recommended their Pad Thai)
Enjoy!Written June 7, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

In July 2023 there were less tourist around but even this time on a Sunday it was not too crowded. I took the MRT to Bang Phai station, Exit 1, and then down the stairs or with the elevator, it takes about 15 minutes to reach the pedestrian bridge over the canal, and then to the grounds of the temple. There is the Meili Café near to the bridge, good espresso and brownies.
There is so much to see at this temple, of course the giant Buddha statue is the main object for pictures. From the pagoda which is behind the Buddha pictures of the area can be taken. In the pagoda there are several levels to climb up the stairs, definitely worthwhile to do.
Several foreign women walked around with very tight shorts and bustier, unfortunately the Thais are too shy to tell them that wearing such dress is very disrespectful.Written January 31, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
