Malls are currently renovating around Thailand in preparation for the upcoming Thai New Year or Songkran Festival. It is soon to become year 2052 in their calendar.

Future Park, Rangsit– the nearest and biggest shopping mall in Thailand, is only 15 minutes ride from home. It has remarkably transformed its image into a “Natural Metro Shopping Park” with an investment of 1 Billion Baht. The management have created a total of 10 rai Forest Park to demonstrate a benchmark for their concern to the environment. A convergence of nature, fashion and shoppers.

After a series of renovation works that began in 2007, they introduced the to new zoning to the customers with a modern touch and complete coverage of customers’ needs. The six zones comprises:

  • Digital Park, which features leading digital products from leading brands;
  • Banking Park that houses 14 banks and four financial institutions;

The ambience of nature, featuring fountains, waterfalls, and plants, enhances the new image of the shopping complex as a trendy shopping center that fulfills the needs of existing and new groups of customers in the perimeter.
