The mall is on the site of the former Ming Mueang market, part of notable Wang Burapha [[commercial district|commercial]] and [[entertainment district]]. In the first decades of the 20th century, Ming Mueang market flourished with the shops dedicated to tailoring. In this way, many buyers who purchased fabrics in Phahurat later went in search of the seamstresses of Ming Mueang to make dresses for them. The market was demolished in the late 1970s along with the stagnation of Wang Burapha. The seamstresses moved to Phahurat and opened their own tailor shops.
