Bangkok Platinum Shopping Plaza



We took the BTS till Childlom station, and walked about 10 minutes toward the mall, which is divided into Plaza A&B.

More details on shop, opening hours etc, please refer platinumfashionmall


Some shops do accept credit cards but may charge the 3%.
There are few foreign money changers..they need your passport for verification.
Luckily for us, we had copies of it in our Iphone, which was accepted.

The place is so huge with more than 2,000 shops, browsing thru each and every outlets would take almost one day..
serious shopping take the other day..

my personal advice..
see it, like it. buy it...you may not be able to locate the shop again in the maze



Always ask for wholesale price..sometime you get lucky and the owner would just sell one piece to you at wholesale price..like the cardigan below ..


Sharing my loot for my doters  from this plaza,

The black cardigan THB350


THB250

Spaghetti Strap T-THB100/piece

Cotton Pants - THB150/ Cotton Panties - THB50/pc


This shop - Sherbet, must be one of the most fashionable supplier..many vendors were just jostling to get their wares when the shop opened for business..


Sherbet Dress - THB350

Bought these 3 pieces from the same store .
Already wholesale prices, one piece, two pieces - same prices

THB300
THB350
Cotton dress - THB350

An these 2 from another store..
Price for 1 piece  THB300
Price for 2 pieces THB450
What better excuse than to buy two pieces as allowed to mix different designs
THB275


THB275



Yes, last but not least, winter gloves @ THB200 
Glove was such a bargain we had to buy ...would come in handy (pun intended) for our holiday to cold countries..



Bangkok@Park Plaza Sukhumvit

Back from my 3D/2N 'working' trip to Bangkok, Thailand.

Left on 3/10/2013 MH 3099 - code share with Thai Airways..
Returned on 5/10/2013 MH791 ETD BKK 1740pm, eta KLIA 10.45pm
Reached home 12 midnite..

Chose to return to 

because of the location on Sukhumvit Soi 20, just few minutes walk from Asoke BTS ..

Other brownies points to this hotel :-



2) Asok Foreign Currency Exchange round the corner has one of the best rates. trust me, I know cos we had to change CNY due to my shopping frenzy..

3) Cloth shop nearby with tons of varieties..and very very reasonable prices..

4) the staff was very honest in transportation recommendation to use a metered taxi rather than hotel limo to Impact Centre.

5) and the best of the deal.. I had a free upgrade to Corner Deluxe Room
