Opening times
- Bangkok malls typically run 10:00–22:00, with restaurant floors staying open later.
- Nearly all of the big ones connect directly to a BTS or MRT station — use the skywalk rather than the street in the heat.
- Tourist discount cards and VAT refund desks are usually at the information counter.
