Mimosa is a world in itself and the best place for a colonial ambience in shopping in Pattaya or Bangkok.

4. Outlet Mall  

Many people have the query – is shopping cheaper in Pattaya or Bangkok? The answer is both, if you know where to look. But cheap shopping often comes with cloning or duplication of the real products, which look exactly the same in the beginning or maybe better, and come at super cheap prices, but give away when put to test of rough use or passage of time because of poor quality. But with factory outlet mall of Pattaya, you can get the original products straight out of factory sold at unbelievably slashed prices. The famous brands you can find here are Adidas, Nike, Warner Bros, Lacoste and Levi among others.
