Your ultimate guide to the new Jungceylon Phuket
Have you been to the revamped Jungceylon Shopping Centre Phuket yet? After undergoing extensive renovations, the mall finally launched its fresh new look in October 2023. And we have to admit, it is now better than ever. Today, it boasts a new identity as “The Oasis of Shopping,” with a refreshed shopping experience (over 300 stores!), upgraded services, and fun things to do. Spanning 200,000 square metres in the heart of Patong, it has been transformed into a “Tropical Resort Mall,” seamlessly blending nature with architecture, with four different zones. Below, we’ve created a guide to enjoy the new zones at Jungceylon Shopping Centre Phuket.
The Jungle – Where you can find everything
On the outside, The Jungle has a Tropical Resort Style that blends with nature, inviting you to relax and take your time. Inside, this zone truly has it all. Start from the lifestyle-fashion street, where you shop everything from street fashion to sporty gear to accessories. Some of the famous brands you’ll find here include American Eagle, UNIQLO, LYN, Rip Curl, and Mellisa.
When you need to recharge your energy after all that shopping, The Jungle boasts two food spots. First up is the “Love Eat” zone, a courthouse-style food zone that offers all sorts of tasty dishes. The second one is the “Food Bazaar,” which has a modern Chinese atmosphere but serves up a range of food from around the world, such as Chinese, Japanese, Indian, Italian, and Korean dishes.
The Jungle Zone is also home to Thairapy. It’s the place to treat yourself to relaxing Thai massages and spa treatments done by experts. Plus, you can pick up spa products and Thai souvenirs.
The Bay – All kinds of shows and the perfect meeting place
The star of the show at The Bay is a massive 20-metre Chinese Junk Boat with its very own catwalk. This boat isn’t just for a show though, it’s basically the centre of all the action. It hosts different kinds of performances and events throughout the year. The area surrounding the boat is often full of fun activities and exhibitions as well.
Aside from being a great place to watch shows, The Bay is also a fantastic spot to meet your friends. With famous restaurants, international fast-food joints, and food kiosks all around, you’ll never go hungry here. And speaking of food, among the restaurants you can find here are Shabushi, Fuji, and Tim Hortons.
