Nightingale-Olympic

The Brutalist façade of Nightingale Olympic, Thailand’s oldest operational department store, is a testament to its storied past. The retail institution is now run by Arun Niyomwanich, the nonagenarian sister of founder Nat Niyomwanich. The multi-level, non-air conditione store retains the retro charms of the original structure, and is teeming with dusty sports equipment, musicalinstruments, rare cosmetics and mysterious-looking mannequins.
