Hor su ra na pha for me, although Hor Banhan-Jamsai is also nice.

I think it's safe to say that observation towers is not one of Thailand's strengths so far :)

Should that one be included?
That's a part of the airport not a true city observational tower.
but...that's the most beautiful one i think.

That's Laem Chabang Observation Tower... It looks more modern than those 4 in the list. My vote might go for it!

Does anyone have any photos of Lam Chabang tower? I'm curious to see what it looks like.
I vote for Suranapa Tower for its originality.
My fav tower is the Suvarnabhumi airport control tower.. but it's not an observation tower though ;)

Bangkok has one of the most original skyscrapers. That being the building that is shaped like an elephant.

I drove pass laemChabang port yesterday.
caught some pics of the tower there. Looks nice from distance and I guess the height should be higher than 100 meters, not sure though.

Bangkok should get one.
yeah, and IMO the best location would be east of Lumpini Park , near Royal Bangkok Sports Club and Soi Sanam Khli.
then u could see most of the buildings at Silom, Siam, Lang Suan and Sukhumvit... wow, that would be great.

btw..i like Banhan-jamsai tower the most.
