EM District

ดิ เอ็ม ดิสทริค

Three luxury malls facing each other across Sukhumvit at Phrom Phong — the densest concentration of retail money in Bangkok.

Jing ler? — no way

Emporium opened in 1997 and effectively invented Phrom Phong as a luxury address; the neighbourhood's property prices have followed it ever since.

EmQuartier hangs a waterfall and a spiral of tropical planting inside the building — its Water Garden — and the rooftop Quartier Avenue restaurants look straight down the length of Sukhumvit.

Emsphere, the newest, opened in December 2023 with a rooftop arena called UOB Live: a concert hall on top of a shopping mall, plus Thailand's first 24-hour Gourmet Market. All three connect by skywalk to Phrom Phong BTS, so you can cross Sukhumvit without touching the pavement.
