Bangkok in the past

I suspect the previous thread is gone, so here's a new one. I wasn't here in the old days so it would be interesting to see and read what it was like. Please post pictures, info, nostalgia and stuff

Here's some..

WTC from Siam Square (???)

Mahboonkrong

Siam Center

Construction of Siam Discovery Center?

Building the skytrain in the late 90s

Yes, Bangkok has changed dramatically in 20 years.

cHemon · February 8th, 2006, 02:47 AM

Ohh! I miss that old thread, very interesting one.

kiku99 · February 8th, 2006, 02:48 AM

whoa, nice to see those old pics of Bangkok. Siam center was bigger in the past?
and whoa, the facade of MBK... somehow, i couldn't remember any of those even i was in Bangkok at that time. i guess that time, i just didn't care much about surroundings.

oh, i've noticed one thing that hasn't changed is the public bus. i think we still use the same models? of course with new models as well.

Nongkhai_tong · February 8th, 2006, 03:28 AM

yes! move ahead Bangkok

I think the fist one is World Trade Center, but not sure when it was built

The second is easy, New Petch road, looking towards Pratunam. With Charn Issara II tower on the left side, not sure what the other one is called. Bangkok Tower maybe. But what year???
