Bangkok, Thailand, February 20, 2023 / TRAVELINDEX / The "It's All Possible" program concept offers breathtaking views from the 78th-floor Skywalk and a lifestyle center to captivate visitors in the heart of the capital. King Power Mahanakhon, Bangkok's new landmark, launches into 2023 with the new "IT'S ALL POSSIBLE" program concept, offering four distinct experiences: DINING, GAMES, STAYING, and SHOPPING. Visitors from around the world can soak up the charm of Bangkok and check into Mahanakhon's trendiest spots, restaurants, concept stores, and world-class hotels.

This was recently unveiled at the grand opening of the King Power Mahanakhon, a development managed by the King Power Group. The Mahanakhon, a multifunctional building in a modern architectural style, serves as a lifestyle center in many respects. It houses luxury hotels such as the Ritz-Carlton Residence and the Standard Bangkok Mahanakhon, a joint venture between the King Power Group and the Standard Group, which is the brand's first flagship hotel in Asia. It also features Firster, a shopping center offering premium beauty and lifestyle products, and the impressive Mahanakhon Sky Walk, Bangkok's highest observation deck at 314 meters.

The building also houses The Mahanakhon Cube lifestyle mall, featuring the Mahanakhon Eatery, a shared dining area operated by seven leading restaurants in a cross-dining format; the Thai Taste Hub Mahanakhon Cube, a hub for the country's leading street food vendors; The Big Board, Thailand's first sports bar; and other lifestyle services such as beauty salons and clinics, fitness clubs, etc.

Mr. Aiyawatt Srivaddhanaprabha, CEO of the King Power Group, stated: “One of King Power’s business strategies is to expand its core duty-free business into relevant tourism businesses. Developing King Power Mahanakhon into a Bangkok landmark will broaden the group’s business portfolio and create synergies with other business units under King Power’s leadership. Ultimately, this will make a tangible contribution to the profile of the country’s tourism industry.”

As part of this plan, King Power Mahanakhon is being continuously developed and expanded into a major tourist destination to enhance Bangkok's appeal to tourists. Thanks to its strategic location in the business district, King Power Mahanakhon is easily accessible via the Chong Nonsi BTS station. Its iconic observation deck on the 78th floor is considered the best in the country.

The building, overlooking the majestic Chao Phraya River, is a unique attraction, comparable to other towering, world-famous landmarks such as the London Eye in England, the Eiffel Tower in France, or the Petronas Building in Malaysia.

The King Power Mahanakhon, a lifestyle center reflecting Bangkok's unique identity, aims to become a landmark of the capital, attracting both domestic and international visitors. With this vision, the Mahanakhon seeks to boost the country's tourism sector and thus support the government's economic stimulus program for tourism recovery following the COVID-19 pandemic.

Amber Asher, CEO of The Standard International, stated: “Our grand opening celebration underscores the strength of the King Power Group’s tourism division, which has always been characterized by resilience and a willingness to expand. This undoubtedly benefits the Thai tourism sector. The development of this landmark hotel boasts a prime location, a unique open-air observation deck, and a lifestyle center that embodies Bangkok’s harmonious yet diverse culture. We are confident that King Power Mahanakhon will become one of Bangkok’s iconic landmarks and has great potential to attract tourists from both Thailand and abroad to experience the charm of Bangkok. By partnering with The Standard Group to develop The Standard, Bangkok Mahanakhon, our first flagship hotel in Asia, King Power Mahanakhon will become a world-class iconic landmark in Bangkok, enhancing the value of the Thai tourism sector.”

Since the reopening of the borders at the end of 2022, the King Power Mahanakhon has seen a steady increase in tourist numbers. Today, thousands of Thai and international tourists visit the Mahanakhon – at least 1,300 daily, of which 5% are Thai and 95% are international guests, for example from Saudi Arabia, South Korea, and India. The most popular activity is walking across the "glass tray," an adventurous check-in point for all those who don't want to miss this unique experience.
