The place is ICONSIAM (Ground Floor), one of Bangkok’s most spectacular malls located along the Chao Phraya River. Stepping inside feels grand – high ceilings, gleaming interiors, and a mix of modern luxury with Thai cultural touches.

On the ground floor, what stood out most was the SookSiam zone, a beautifully curated space that feels like walking through Thailand’s different provinces. Stalls are styled like a floating market, with vendors selling local snacks, regional delicacies, handicrafts, and traditional products. It gave me a taste of Thailand’s diversity without leaving the mall.

I sampled some street-style Thai snacks and browsed through stalls selling handcrafted souvenirs – it was like blending shopping with a cultural experience. The atmosphere was lively, colorful, and filled with the aroma of freshly cooked Thai food.

Travel Tips & How to Get There
• Getting There: Located by the Chao Phraya River, ICONSIAM is accessible via BTS (Saphan Taksin Station) with a free shuttle boat to the mall, or by car/taxi.
• What to Try: Don’t miss exploring SookSiam for authentic Thai snacks and regional specialties. Try local sweets, grilled skewers, and refreshing drinks.
