The Mall of the Year - Thailand award reflects AWC’s continued success in shaping Asiatique The Riverfront Destination into an internationally recognized landmark. The project is also a key part of the AWC River Journey Project, which connects cultural and tourism destinations along the Chao Phraya River. Situated on a historically significant site that once served as Thailand’s first cargo port during the reign of King Rama V, the area has been thoughtfully revitalized by AWC into a vibrant, contemporary destination. Blending historical significance with modern experiences, the destination offers a dynamic mix of riverside dining, cultural engagement, retail, and global-scale entertainment, guided by the concept of ‘All Day Everyday Happiness’.

Asiatique The Riverfront Destination continues to energize Thailand’s global tourism landscape with the forthcoming launch of ‘Jurassic World: The Experience’, the world’s latest immersive experience of its kind for families and visitors of all ages. Nearby, the Jurassic World: The Experience Hatch Dome will house AWC’s “Better World, Better Future”, a groundbreaking Liminal 4D Experience that connects the extinction of dinosaurs to environmental awareness today. AWC has also expanded its strategic partnerships with numerous allies, including government agencies, global partners, and world-renowned hotel chains, introducing new riverside culinary and service experiences through a curated selection of exceptional restaurants. These include the Jurassic World: The Experience Fossil & Flame Restaurant, the first-ever Jurassic World restaurant outside of a theme park, where cinematic storytelling meets immersive dining through themed menus and environments inspired by the beloved franchise. ‘Asiatique Ancient Tea House’, a refined dim sum venue that tells the story of Siam’s historical global connections. ‘The Crystal Grill House’, a premium steakhouse and seafood grill inspired by Siam’s trade history during the reign of King Rama V, and closely linked to the story of the ‘Sirimahannop’, a replica of the last three-masted sailing ship officially used by The Royal Thai Navy that brought prosperity from the western world to the Kingdom of Thailand. ‘Okura Cruise’, the world’s first luxurious Kaiseki and Teppanyaki dining cruise by Okura, blending authentic Japanese culinary traditions and modern interpretations along the Chao Phraya River. All these experiences have been warmly embraced by both Thai and international visitors.
