Bangkok Trip 2024 - Day 4 - King Power Mahanakhon

Day 4, started the day visit to King Power Mahanakhon. One of the highest observation deck in Thailand. The main attraction must be the glass floor on the 78th floor.
Easy to access to here. Take the BTS to Chong Nonsi Station (Exit 3) and walked about 2 mins to the building.

First , we need to purchase our tickets.


We bought the senior citizen tickets at 350 baht (need show passport or any Identification). For adult is 880 baht for  day time entry.

They have lockers to keep our large handbags or shopping bags, etc. We are not allowed to bring big bags, etc up to the observation deck. It is free to use the lockers as long as you have the entrance ticket to the observation deck.



Then we took the lift up to the 74th floor where we could view Bangkok city  360 degrees.


Then we took the escalator one floor up to use the hydraulic lift up to the 78th floor roof top.


Some fun telephone booth for photo taking.


It was too hot to sit here, the weather is a killer during the heatwave in May.

The glass floor on the rooftop. It was so scary. I thought the glass floor might crack anytime hahaha. But I avoid looking down so quickly walked to the centre of the glass floor and took some quick photos and quickly make my way back.
