Luxury mall with everything you can imagine. But for me, I go there for the bookstore Kinokuniya. Great atmosphere with a lot of foreign-language books.

Sightseeing
Tallest spot to have a great view of Bangkok. I recommend that you book a buffet dinner here (surprisingly not expensive!). It grants you the free access to sky deck too. info www.baiyokebuffet.com

Green lungs of Bangkok. Best time to go is around 06:00 - 08:00 (join the jogging people!) and 16:00 - 18:00 when it's not too hot. Every evening there's free aerobic dance session :)
