Siam Paragon is a luxurious shopping mall located in the Pathum Wan district of downtown Bangkok. With a gross area of 300,000 square meters, it is one of the biggest malls in Bangkok after CentralWorld nextdoor. Siam Paragon opened on 9 December, 2005 offering a wide range of upscale stores and restaurants. It also has a multiplex 15-screen theater with one of the theaters having the biggest screen and seating capacity in Asia. Siam Paragon is home to Siam Ocean World, the largest aquarium in Southeast Asia.
Siam Paragon is a joint-venture between the Siam Group, which owns the adjacent Siam Center and Siam Discovery Center. It stands on the site of the former Siam Intercontinental Hotel, which was demolished following the end of its lease. The land belongs to the Bereau of Crown Property, and was at one time a royal parkland.
The Bangkok Skytrain station directly in front of Siam Paragon along Rama I Road obscure much of the view of the building. The best viewpoint of the mall is through the train station's platform.
