Southeast Asia's first low-rise super regional mall, at the Bangna-Trad Road / Km 8 junction in Bang Kaeo, Bang Phli district -- Samut Prakan's largest shopping destination, anchored by IKEA Bangna, Robinson, Big C and Major Cineplex across roughly 225,000 sqm of retail space.
Mega Bangna opened in 2012 as a joint development between Ikano (the group that operates IKEA stores across several countries) and Big C, built around a roughly 40,000 sqm IKEA Bangna store as its flagship anchor. The wider complex spans about 225,000 sqm of retail space and is marketed by its operator, Ikano Centres, as Southeast Asia's first low-rise super regional mall, with roughly 800 retailers and tens of millions of visitor trips a year. It sits on Bangna-Trad Road at the Km 8 marker in Bang Kaeo, Bang Phli district -- squarely within Samut Prakan province, on the Samut Prakan side of the Bangkok/Samut Prakan provincial line even though it shares the popular \"Bangna\" name with several venues and roads that sit across the border in Bangkok's own Bang Na district.

Beyond the IKEA flagship, Mega Bangna's anchors include a Robinson department store, a Big C Supercenter hypermarket, a Major Cineplex multiplex and a Home Pro home-improvement store, wrapped around several hundred smaller retail and dining tenants -- giving it the scale of a full regional mall rather than a neighbourhood shopping centre.
Mega Bangna sits on Bangna-Trad Road at the Km 8 marker in Bang Kaeo, Bang Phli district, close to the Bangkok/Samut Prakan provincial line. It is best reached by car or Grab from anywhere in eastern Bangkok or northern Samut Prakan; there is large-scale on-site parking. It is a separate venue from Central Bangna (CentralPlaza Bangna), which despite the shared \"Bangna\" branding is located across the provincial line in Bangkok's Bang Na district and is not part of Samut Prakan's retail inventory.
Mega Bangna is generally open daily during standard Thai mall hours, roughly 10:00 to 22:00 for most retail, though IKEA and Big C sometimes open earlier or run extended hours.
