River City Shopping Center

Listed under Shopping in Bangkok, Thailand.

Imagine walking leisurely through a complex, located so as to give impressive views of the Chao Phraya river, with over 100 antique and art boutiques. The River City shopping center is that dream. It is home to many prestigious galleries that showcase beautiful, individual pieces from mainly the Thai culture, but also from China, Burma, Laos, Cambodia and Vietnam. The third and fourth floors are made up of eclectic shops with antiques such as Buddha images, gold ornaments, large vases, porcelain, silver boxes, and homemade wooden carvings. The art and antiques are beautifully laid out, making it a visually appealing experience as well. River City often hosts auctions, exhibitions, and shows, which further show off the beautiful and timed pieces of art within the complex.

Shop for: Art and Antique pieces

Cafe Stop: Grand Pearl

Get here: Skytrain (BTS) to: Saphan Taksin Station, then a free boat shuttle from Sathorn Pier
