The 84-storey Baiyoke Tower is an unmissable towering landmark in the Pratunam area of Bangkok. Its skywalk on the 77th floor has large viewing windows and is the best place in the area to get sweeping bird's-eye views of the skyline. The revolving rooftop observation deck on the 84th floor is where you can gain even higher and more impressive views of the city. The area where the tower stands is known for the famous Pratunam market with its thousands of clothing and garment shops. It's one thing to see the Bangkok skyline from your hotel window, but watching it from the 84th-floor outdoor revolving deck is entirely another. Up at the top, the cool breeze, the excitement, the open space and the sense that you're on top of one of Thailand's tallest buildings make all the difference. For around 400 baht, you can get access to the skywalk on the 77th floor, the revolving observation deck and a free drink. Once you're up on the revolving deck, you can spend as much time as you want, before going down one level to enjoy your complimentary drink. The whole place is a bit old and doesn't have the charm of all the newer rooftop bars and restaurants in Bangkok, but this is really about getting a unique view, where you can see the whole Siam and Sukhumvit area. One of the most famous photography to take is the huge crossing with all the different highways, as impressive during the day and during the night.
