The MahaNakhon skyscraper in Bangkok is the real pride of Thailand. Baiyoke Sky is the tallest building in Bangkok

We love to climb higher. If mountains, then the Himalayas, if a skyscraper, then the highest in Thailand. And even if we are not yet so extreme to climb straight to Everest or the fire escape at Burj Dubai, but at the first opportunity we are looking for the most high point to take a look around. In Bangkok, the 85-storey Baiyoke Sky Hotel, 328 meters high, turned out to be such a place. On some almost top floor there is a rotating open area, for which you can buy a ticket and rotate there at least the whole day. We wanted to catch there both daylight hours, sunset, and darkness. But now it's almost five o'clock, and we're just driving, in a hurry, late ...

The hotel is not so sophisticated and expensive, Russian package travelers often settle there. But high, yeah! The highest in Asia. You can settle, it seems, on some seventy floors.

From the street, you can already see the ticket office, which sells tickets to visit a restaurant or site. The restaurant is cheaper. Someone said that it is enough to take a ticket there and then climb to the site on your own, but we decided not to tempt fate. Uncles stood at the elevators, checking tickets and seeing them off where they needed to go. The 250 baht site ticket includes a cocktail of your choice at the Roof Top bar, and the 300 baht ticket includes a dinner.

The site is called an observer at the checkout. This, apparently, misled someone, and Ajay read on Wikipedia that there is also an observatory upstairs. I really wanted to go there. But there was no observatory, although all the design on the way to the site was a kind of planetary-space.

A little late, the sun has already set, but the sky is still slightly illuminated.

It fades very quickly. With each circle, the frames become an order of magnitude darker.

The movement of cars is amazing. The city seems like an anthill, the roads look like ant processions.

We wonder if the skyscrapers will turn on the lights. But these are all office buildings, and clerks are now driving home along these very roads.

Distant skyscrapers are drowning in haze.

The dark line above the road is the skytrain line.

Lights were lit on the site. Birdsong blares from the loudspeakers to the grinding of the pad itself, which spins non-stop, but not too fast.

We got out of it, and for a few more minutes it seemed to us that the floor was moving))
They stared at the coin in the telescope.

And we went to the bar for a cocktail. Outside the bar, they saw those who chose their dinner. It was packed in a huge scary box and looked like an airplane ration, but with some kind of cakes. In such a romantic setting, I would not really like such a "canteen", so I was glad of our choice.

The bar was intimate and the city was perfectly visible through the panoramic windows.

Bangkok was built in the delta, in the recent past its territory was riddled with a network of canals, now mostly filled up and turned into highways. Height above sea level is only two meters. Within a radius of fifty kilometers from there is not a single natural hill, and even the capital was built on a place called the "Swamp of Cobras." That's why everything viewing platforms Bangkok have man-made nature. These include the artificial hills under the temple complexes, and the open terraces of restaurants located on the roofs of skyscrapers. We offer you a description of several points of the most successful, from our point of view, for a panoramic view of this giant human anthill.

MahaNakhon

August 29, 2016 opened a new and most tall skyscraper Bangkok (from Thai means "Megapolis") with a height of 314 meters and 77 floors. The skyscraper is notable for its "pixel facade", which resembles the mutilated buildings by aliens in the movie "Pixels". Here guests are presented with a panoramic observation deck with a circular view of 360 °. Since this tower is located far from Baiyoke Sky, completely different and no less beautiful views.

Baiyoke II Tower

In (Baiyoke II Tower or Baiyoke Sky) with a height of 309 meters there is a chain of restaurants. On the 81st floor - Bangkok Balcony with an open balcony, on the 82nd fish restaurant Crystal Grill, and on the 83rd - a bar with panoramic windows. The only rotating Bangkok's Baiyoke Sky is on its roof. If you don't feel like eating or drinking, get off the elevator on the 77th floor, where there is an observation deck with telescopes, the use of which is paid, but not very expensive. There is also a small museum exhibition. All observation decks can be reached in an elevator with a glazed cabin on the outside of the building.

A very democratic place where you will not be reminded of the need to comply with the dress code.

Golden Mount

The mound to the east of the Royal Palace, on which the temple of Wat Saket stands. It was called golden because of the chedi covered with gold.

This catering point has a special “chip” - an open rooftop veranda, fenced with shock-resistant glass. Having climbed there, do not think that you have been transported to Manhattan - from the observation deck below you can see the green crowns of the trees of Lumpini Park, which is surrounded by skyscrapers. An inconspicuous staircase leads to the open veranda, marked with a sign saying "Hi-So Only" - something like "only for high society", but this is a kind of Thai humor, nothing more.

Moon Bar

This is a bar located on the rooftop of the Banyan Tree Bangkok hotel. Fully windswept observation deck of Bangkok with a low (waist-high) tempered glass fence. There are 61 floors to the ground, so the “roof-bar” format is perceived as a hangout place for those who like to climb higher.

long table

The Long Table bar and restaurant is located on the 25th floor of the high-rise of the Column Hotel, located at Sukhumvit Soi, 16. The establishment is expensive, with a strict dress code.

It has two viewing platforms. Climbing them along very steep (almost vertical stairs) steps. Therefore, consider your physical condition. Although such a test is conceived by the builders of the temple on purpose. This is a symbol of the fact that it is not at all easy to reach the highest level of enlightenment.

However, the rapid development of the Asian economies has made it possible to build skyscrapers in the southeastern countries, which are distinguished by style, brilliance and unusual architectural solutions.

Skyscrapers of Thailand built thanks to the desire of the country's authorities to surprise the world with growing economic power, demonstrate the development of technology and attract tourist flows. Thai skyscrapers: breathtaking buildings with magical views from the rooftops.

MahaNakhon (Megapolis)

Tallest skyscraper in Bangkok and Thailand, MahaNakhon was inaugurated in the summer of 2016, the building appeared before the residents and numerous tourists in the form of a huge computer board. The pixelated façade sparked controversy, drawing attention to itself.

The skyscraper, whose height is 314 meters, was instantly chosen by restaurateurs, businessmen and lovers of living under the clouds.

MahaNakhon, designed by a German architectural firm, cost investors more than half a billion dollars. However, million-dollar contracts with tenants quickly paid for the project. The tourist attraction of the skyscraper is obvious: 22 high-speed elevators, overcoming 8 meters per second, rush visitors to the observation deck.

Skyscraper Sathorn Unique in Thailand was the first of the ambitious high-rise projects conceived by the authorities in the 90s of the last century. But the financial crisis that broke out at the turn of the century, which affected the Thai economy, did not allow the already completed 49-story building in Bangkok to be put into operation.

When money appeared again, it turned out that it was easier to build a new skyscraper than to restore an old house. That's why abandoned skyscraper in bangkok is rapidly collapsing, rising menacingly above the metropolis. Sometimes it serves advertisers: advertising calls are perfectly visible from its heights. The passage there is closed, but this does not prevent base jumpers and those who like to tickle nerves from penetrating into Sathorn: they say that the abandoned house is full of ghosts.
