MBK Center
Annita says
Know that not everything for sale is authentic. iPhones, fragrances, shoes... many of them are fake and are sold for a little bit cheaper than the original ones. Pay attention and trust your instinct!
You can also bargain in some of the shops in this mall. Not in every one, but in many of them, like some on the upper floors. Once again, trust your instinct! At least ask if they can lower the price a little bit.
If you're a smoker, make sure to smoke near the ashtrays and on the designated areas that are outside. Police tend to scam tourists giving them fines for smoking in places that aren't marked for it.

The MBK Center is a mega-mall with 8 floors and approximately 2300 shops. It's known for being one of the cheapest malls in Bangkok.
It opened in 1985 as the largest mall in Asia, characteristic that isn't true now as many other big malls have been opened, for example, the nearby CentralWorld is one of the largest in the world.
The name MBK comes from the chief developer's parents, Mah and Boon Krong.
