If you’re a regular Bangkok tripper, you may think you know all there is to Siam’s premium shopping belt.
Think again.
LINE – a popular text messaging app – low key launched their 3-storey indoor theme park in Siam Square One earlier this year.
Only, it’s hidden behind this deceptively cute storefront, so most Singaporeans just breeze past it, none the wiser.
Here’s what to expect, from over 20-themed rooms, to Virtual Reality (VR) encounters with Brown & Cony, as well as plenty of artistic shots for your Instafeed. Not to mention a thrilling VR roller coaster based on an actual Six Flags ride.
Best of all, children under 90cm enter for free.
Dads who struggle to entertain the kiddos while your better halves are shopping, you’re most welcome.
The folks at LINE Village definitely understand millennials, and have gone out of their way to pepper the trail with artistic backdrops for you to achieve that perfect mirrored shot.
If all staircases look like this, we wouldn’t mind the daily step work out.
Also, don’t forget to check out this mirrored room dedicated to the adorable LINE mascot, Brown! Only, he’s now white, lighted, and has a million clones.
This lighted interactive LED corridor plastered with kaleidoscopic LINE characters bidding you a fond goodbye will be the perfect conclusion to a fun tour.
Delightfully pink-themed hangouts will make all the internal fangirls within you squeal when you pay a visit to Cony’s and Choco’s rooms.
You may not be able to try out Choco’s clothes fur realz, but you’ll definitely love snapping a picture with Sally in her adorable bubble bath.
Cony’s kitchen will also bring our the domestic goddesses, with a fun Cooking Mama style interactive game available for guests.
Let debonair James whisk you away for a garden date in a lush forest terrace within the park.
We won’t be too surprised if the set-up puts you in the mood to propose to your significant other either.
Treating the people you love like the queens and kings they are, is definitely something King James himself would approve of.
Fans of the moon-faced human-esque character Moon will also not be disappointed by his room, inspired by his dreams of blasting off into space.
Expect spacesuits, endless sky blankets of twinkling stars, a telescope and even a life-sized rocket hidden snugly between a washing machine and a microwave.
Boss’ room will definitely give men FOMO as well, for it has a luxurious parquet floor and tons of branded watches, suits and polished shoes.
If reading’s more your thing, then head back to regular-SES Brown’s room to chill with the adorable bear.
Wait, he’s got a library too, so he ain’t that low-SES after all.
When night falls, LINE Village will transform into the hottest party district. Thanks to DJ Brown who’ll hype up the crowd with freshly spun records.
A VR-themed rollercoaster experience featuring LINE Characters is also in-store for adventurous visitors.
Be warned that it’s not for the faint-of-heart as the thrilling ride was inspired by an iconic coaster at the Six Flags amusement park in the US.
You won’t want to walk away empty-handed from the Line Theme Park either.
Be sure to drop by the gargantuan collection of LINE collectibles, plushies, socks, plates, and stationery, to grab a souvenir for your envious friends.
LINE Village has also said there’s a cafe area in the works, so we’re expecting that they’ll be cute themed-food and desserts served up soon.
We’ve got great news for children below the height of 90cm, entry is absolutely free for you.
As for taller children, parents and children-at-heart, here’s how much it’ll cost you for a visit. Ticket prices are inclusive of the VR rollercoaster ride and other digital adventures within the tour.
