Sawasdeekrub! This year 2012 mark my return to Bangkok, the land of smiles, my second home after 2 years ofhiatus. Full of nostalgic feelings however, there’s a place which I have notvisited for the past few years till now. Yes the Baiyoke Tower II, the tallest buildingin Thailand. The building is 304 m (997 ft) tall, or 328 m (1,076 ft) tall withthe antenna included. Situated at Ratchathewi district, the tower has85 floors with a public observatory on the 77th floor. To enter the top of thetower, you are required to purchase a ticket of 400 baht person (300 bahtbefore 6pm; free for hotel guest). The ticket price includes snacks andcocktail of your choice at the “Roof Top Bar & Music Lounge” on the 83rd floorand a 360 degrees revolving roof top deck which is situated on the 84th floor.The Baiyoke Tower II is also known as Sky Hotel which is the tallest hotel inSoutheast Asia and the fourth tallest in the world with 673 guest rooms.

 The photo of the tower taken from afar nearby the Central World Shopping Complex in the year 2008. On wall, the advertisement for "BMW: A Brand to look up to" still remains the same even now

My favorite method of aerial photography..45 degrees tilt to get the round Earth feeling...

From another side of the hotel lobby from far you could see the huge poster of the revered Thai King Bhumibol on the Novotel Hotel.
