RE: A trip to Dream World Bangkok

in Pinmapple3 months ago (edited)

Wow, what a day out! I only lived a couple of miles from there but it's probably 13 years since I went. It's changed a lot since the floods in 2011 where everything you can see in your pictures was under a metre of water!

Next time you're in that area, visit Zeer Mall, biggest IT mall in the world and another great mall is Future Park / Zpell, only a couple of km down the road.

That whole area of Rangsit is brilliant. Lots to do and see, restos and bars and still a locally area. I loved living around there for over 12 years.

Have a great weekend and thanks for the memories as I wallow on a little island, bored shitless lol

Sort:  

I searched what you meant and damn, that was terrible! Was your area affected too? Our city also has a big river that swells up when there's a big rain from the mountains and I’ve imagined Chao Phraya also has the same thing but not that bad. That’s whole Bangkok (or big % of Thailand) covered in flood!!

I didn’t realize that is already the area where BTS line stops lol. We’ve never been that far I think, except going to that one IT mall to extend our visas😂. Next time we should as there are also a lot of amusement parks nearby. Little island is fun too, away from noise and pollution :D

Yes, we had the flood for almost 3 months, 2m deep at its worst. We stayed down here on Samui with Fons mum and dad when we managed to get out of the condo. Absolute mess. I'll post a few pics later of what it still looked like 3 months after it started :-)
