Chidlom–Ratchaprasong packs Bangkok's upscale malls into the tightest cluster in the city, from CentralWorld and Gaysorn Village to Central Chidlom and Big C Ratchadamri, with the busy Erawan Shrine on the corner of the intersection drawing worshippers all day. BTS Chit Lom and Ratchadamri stations sit close together, joined to the malls by an elevated skywalk that keeps you dry when it rains. That makes it a favourite base for shoppers who want a mid-range to luxury hotel, with a mall just a few minutes from the lobby.
