The Siam Paragon was finished amid so rush that some of the ceilings were unpainted, the floor tiles were creaked and maladjusted. The Siam Paragon covers an area of 13 acres and about US$ 450 million were spent to build the gigantic building structure. The structure was designed in such way that it is accessible from the skytrain station directly. Moistly the mall invites the people of elite class across the Thailand and around the Globe, and common items are also available here.
