About Central WorldCentralWorld is the largest shopping center in Southeast Asia and larger than Hong Kong's Ocean Terminal. In 2006, after three years of design and renovation, the expanded, 800,000-square-meter mall was opened, topping its nearby rival Siam Paragon in terms of size.
Originally called the World Trade Center, the eight-story mall was opened in 1990. The Central Group acquired the property in 2002 from the Wang Petchaboon group and soon thereafter renamed it Central World Plaza and in 2005 rechristened it CentralWorld. It is on Crown Property Bureau land. In its acquisition, the Central Group's property development arm, Central Pattana Plc, secured a new 30-year lease on the site.
CentralWorld is located between Chit Lom and Siam stations. An elevated walkway connects the two stations to facilitate foot traffic. Central World also can be accessed from Gaysorn or Big C Ratchaprasong via pedestrian overpasses.
