Pratunam's Market is located at the intersection of Ratchaprarop and Phetburi Road , opposite of Platinum Fashion Mall and nearby is the famous Baiyoke tower II. Pratunam Night Market starts at 5:00 PM until 11:00 PM. You'll get more discounts if you buy the clothes in wholesale price. For a minimum of 3 items you can save up to 30-50 baht each and for 6 items almost 50% discount.
A few metres away is the Platinum Fashion Mall which is opposite of Pratunam Market. This is where more fashionable with more quality items are sold and at a much higher prices compare to the market. Surprisingly, I took two shots of the Platinum Fashion Mall streets: daylight and nightlight. It's a great comparison of how traffic works in Bangkok.
Pratunam to MBK Shopping Mall by taxi: 50 baht. From MBK Mall you can transfer from one mall to another, they're all closely built along with Siam Malls. MBK mall is located on Phayathai, near Siam Tower and Hard Rock Cafe, also near BTS National Stadium. The MBK mall was next to Siam Square and Siam Center and they're connected by sky bridges. The next mall we headed was the Siam Center/Siam Discovery Center where it features class and sophisticated shops.

Siam Paragon has their own version of Gardens by the Bay just like in Singapore, which is more smaller in size and they made it as an interior design. Taxi back to Pratunam Market fare 50 baht. Be alert some taxi even offered us 150 baht for just a 10 minutes ride. Always take metered taxi never ride taxi with a Flat Fare. If they insist then go get yourself another cab, their dishonesty only proves they can't be trusted.
