Tired of shopping in MBK, Saim Paragon and central world plaza? Take a switch by visiting a shopping mall built in the earlier day of Bangkok - The Old Siam Plaza. Old Siam Plaza is one of those places the local youngster just consider old and outdated, but this is the mall that give you a glimpse on its past with its old style movie theater, shops and Art Deco building.
Ranked by lonelyplanet at a modest #310 of 792 things to do in Thailand, the Old siam plaza can never be the hot tourist spot. However, if you are a sentimental person who likes oldies or someone who love desserts, this is likely the place for you. The Old Siam Plaza is a 3 storeys building with two domed atriums split between fashion items on one side and traditional Thai snacks on the other. The snacks atrium is where you can find all sorts of traditional snacks and sweets skillfully prepared right in front of you. And there are more snacks stalls in Old Siam Plaza than Or Tor Kor Market ( Famous fresh food market next to Chatuchak Weekend Market). A true traditional Thai snack haven that desserts lover can't missed!
The plaza is located on the end of Yaowarat Road, intersection between Phahuratm road and Triphet road; approximately 1.3km away from the China town central.
