Among other things, Bangkok is known throughout the world as being the Gemstone hub of Thailand. There are many places to find top quality gems in the capital but there are certain areas that are definitely better than others. Finding exactly what you’re looking for can be a bit of a struggle in such a busy, vibrant environment and this is why we’d like to give you a few tips on where you can go, in order to make your search easier and more enjoyable.

• Silom Road

 This area is commonly known as the Gemstone District of Bangkok. The Jewelry Trade Centre can be found in its very heart, on the corner of Surasak and Silom Rd, and is a great place to buy top quality gems at affordable prices. It is a major trading hub for gemstone jewelry dealers and is an excellent place to find gems that have been accredited by top ranking gemology labs, such as AIGS, GIA and many other reputable institutions.  

• China Town

 Yaowarat road in China Town is home to many reputable gemstone stores and is a good place to go if you’re looking for gold.  The dealers in this area really know their trade inside out though so don’t try and bargain too hard, chances are you’ll already be getting the best deals around.

• Khao San Road

 Known mostly for being the main destination for backpackers and revelers, Khao San road is also home to many top quality jewelry stores as well. If you’re looking for Sterling silver, you should definitely go to this area.

• Charoen Krung

 In English, Charoen Krung translates as 'Glorious City'. For those seeking silver accessories it truly is a glorious place to go, with a vast variety of uniquely designed jewelry pieces on offer. If you’re a wholesaler, retailer or someone who is just looking to buy a fine piece of silver jewelry, Charoen Krung road is where you should be heading. It’s conveniently located near the Saphan Taksin BTS station and runs alongside the Chao Phrya River.
