The Thai debut of the giant Japanese Takashimaya department store occupies a total space of 36,000 sq meters over seven floors at IconSiam.

There are over 530 shops, of which 170 are top brands from Japan, and 80 are Japanese shops launching in Thailand for the very first time. Expect to find men’s and women’s clothing, toys, home appliances, home decoration and kitchenware, as well as seven restaurants and seven cafes.

Highlights include Taka Marche supermarket on the G/F, which sells fresh food and products sent directly from Japan; Hokkaido Dosanko Plaza (G/F), which offers Japanese and Western desserts including Hokkaido gourmet goods; and the “Rose Dining” zone on the fourth floor, which houses Elle Cafe and several other Japanese restaurants making their Thailand debut, like Katsukura, famed for their crispy pork tonkatsu set.
