Siam Discovery Center

The Siam Discovery Center is right on the corner facing MBK and the Bangkok Art and Culture Center. The relatively small mall is connected to Siam Center, which is owned and operated by the same group. The mall has a selection of shops selling branded fashions and trendy home decor.

The hook: After a major remodel in 2010, Siam Discovery did away with their "me too" cineplex and replaced it with a branch of madame Tussauds wax museum. At 700 Baht for an adult ticket, it's far from the cheapest entertainment you can find around Bangkok.
