If you are planning a trip to Nakhon Ratchasima, it is worth noting that there are a number of good places where you can do excellent shopping. Korat is not as big as Bangkok, however, it has an excellent shopping center and several areas with a high concentration of stores and shops.

The mall

This is a large American-style shopping center and is located in the center of the city. There are over a hundred different stores there, as well as dozens of food and drink outlets. The most famous include KFC, Pizza Hut, McDonalds, Sizzlers Steak House, and Dunkin Donuts. The Mall is also home to a number of wonderful entertainment venues including a large state-of-the-art multi-screen movie theater, an arcade area, and a world-class fitness center. Visitors will also find a wide range of banking facilities in the building.

tesco lotus

This huge British retail giant has locations in all major cities and tourist destinations in Thailand and is also located near the city center of Korat. There are also numerous smaller shops located in the complex, as well as several small restaurants and banks. Please note that there is indoor and outdoor parking for cars and motorcycles.

big C

The most popular shopping place is undoubtedly the Big C due to its overwhelming selection of products and its competitive pricing policy. In addition to Big C, you’ll also find a few dozen smaller stores, as well as a KFC and a great food court. I suggest you avoid visiting the local Big C on the weekend as it gets very crowded and it might be difficult to find a parking space and there will be long lines at the cashiers.

Klang Square 1 and 2

There are two different Klang Plaza which are generally known as Old and New Klang Plaza. However, they both seem to offer the same type of products, brands and they both have a western-style supermarket in the basement. The type of clothing they offer is usually from well-known western brands and high-quality local items.

IT center

Thailand is well known for its low prices and excellent variety of IT products. If you want to buy a new mobile phone, a netbook, or perhaps some of the latest software or DVD titles, head to the IT center, which is a large shopping center filled with various computer retail stores and repair centers.
