Lamai Center

Shopping in Lamai

Lamai Center is a small plaza-like shopping precinct in the heart of Lamai (hence the name), opposite the Golden Elephant restaurant. With a modest selection of high-quality shops and cafés, it’s worth a visit for its unique wares and peaceful atmosphere.

The plaza is really little more than a short indent on one side of the main road running through Lamai, which goes back about 60 meters. However, that indent is lined with boutique stores and has a pleasant fountain and pond in the middle, giving it a look and feel halfway between Thai and European.

The shops available at Lamai Center include a travel agent, a tattoo and body piercing shop, a massage parlor, a second-hand book store a lamp shop, and a clothing store. This, plus an ice cream parlor, make it a very tourist-oriented place to shop in Lamai.
