Thailand’s northern-most province
of Chiang Rai lies just south of the great Mekong River. With its lush
mountains and rainforests, its scenery is considered to be amongst the most
beautiful in the country.
Developed by Central Pattana
Public Co., Ltd. (CPN), a leading shopping-complex developer in Thailand, the
Central Plaza Chiang Rai shopping-center project was initiated to support the national
policy to promote the province of Chiang Rai as part of the GMS (Greater Mekong
Sub-region) Economic Corridors Project. The project’s location and the positioning
of the structure are in accordance with a condition that a public waterway be
allowed to pass through the 20.56-acre site.
Central Plaza Chiang Rai, heralded
as The Lanna Cultural Lifestyle Shopping Center, is the first of its kind in a
province recognized for, and rich in, history and cultural diversity.
Lanna-inspired design themes pay tribute to the region’s indigenous aesthetics,
while the shopping complex itself exemplifies the modern comforts of the 21st
century with accessibility, functionality, convenience and entertainment.
Robinson’s Department Store serves as a main anchor for the
project, while the remainder of the shopping complex is comprised of notable
brands, outlets and services, including B2S, Power Buy, SuperSports, Tops
Market, and Food Court, among others, as well as Major Cineplex movie theaters,
numerous other retail shops, and indoor parking spaces. The project area,
excluding an external parking area, spans an impressive 100,000 square meters.
