Dr. Nattakit Tangpoonsinthana, Chief Marketing Officer for Central Pattana plc, said: “Nakhon Pathom has strong economic potential, with its GDP increasing every year, and it is ranked third in the central region. It is a province that supports population expansion from Bangkok, with growing real estate projects as well as several mega-projects. Examples include the SRT Light Red Line, connecting Nakhon Pathom to the heart of Bangkok. There are two motorways: Bang Yai-Kanchanaburi and Chonburi-Saraburi-Nakhon Pathom, along with the Central-Western Economic Corridor. Nakhon Pathom is an economic gateway to the western region, supporting the purchasing power of its residents and expanding into new catchment areas in Ratchaburi and Kanchanaburi. Additionally, Nakhon Pathom is a city of art and culture, boasting interesting cultural tourism attractions as the ‘cradle of civilization,’ enriched with important sites such as Phra Pathom Chedi. The city is known for tourism, welcoming visitors over the weekend from Bangkok and the surrounding provinces, offering a variety of tourist attractions.

Central Nakhon Pathom, located adjacent to Phet Kasem Road, holds high potential for growth. It is close to main tourist attractions such as Phra Pathom Chedi, Sanam Chandra Palace, and leading educational institutions like Silpakorn University. Several real estate projects are also expanding in this area. Therefore, Central Nakhon Pathom will serve as the city center, fulfilling the needs of customers without requiring them to travel to Bangkok. Nakhon Pathom and nearby provinces boast residents with strong purchasing power.”

Central Nakhon Pathom presents the charms of local identity in a design inspired by Phra Pathom Chedi on the façade of Central Nakhon Pathom. The design is special because the tile patterns used at the shopping center come from the same source as Phra Pathom Chedi. Elements in various locations such as the escalator halls, floors, and walls are also inspired by local elements, creating a beautiful blend of the lifestyle of the riverside community. Additionally, we were inspired to create the ‘Edutainment Hub’ by allocating learning areas for people of all ages, such as the Education Zone, bringing together skills development institutes, Playland playgrounds, and creative community spaces for students to use as their learning space to receive and pass on new inspiration daily.

Nakhon Pathom is a city of education filled with the creative energy of a new generation.

Additionally, we will join hands with Central Group affiliated companies to organize signature events to be recognized nationally, such as The Ultimate Watch, Coffee Society, Songkran Festival, Motor Show, and Summer Fashion Show by the new generation of designers from Silpakorn University, to support employment and further boost the Nakhon Pathom economy.
