Fashion Island is a shopping mall located on Ramintra Road, in Khan Na Yao district outskirt of Bangkok, Thailand.
Fashion Island is currently ranked Twenty-first largest mall in the World along with Dubai Mall and West Edmonton Mall (once biggest mall in the world until 2004).
The shopping mall featured an amusement park with a monorail circling around the mall. It was 1.4 km in length and has 4 stations. The amusement park and monorail were both shut down after an accident. On 26 June 2002, a short circuit caused one train to catch fire. The train had no circuit breaker, and the passenger compartment was not protected by fireproof insulation. Two girls, 6 and 8 years old, died in the fire, and two more children were injured from jumping out of the train.
