If I am asked, how many times have you traveled to King Bhumibol Adulyadej’s country?… Ummh 3 times, guys.…Easy first level question.
Then if I am asked, what is the most memorable thing when visiting that “White Elephant Country“?….Tom Yam or its ladyboy (hahaha….kidding), guys….easy answer for second level question.
OKAY.…before entering next question
All of You have knew, how feel when do “crazy traveling” abroad in version of travelingpersecond.com….maybe, normal people will give answer “nothing nice”.
But, this time I was a little showing off….hahaha. Because I save one story of my bourgeois trip to Thailand.
This is the story….What will you do if you are given USD 740 by your boss and you were asked to spend it all for 3 days 2 nights in Baifern Pimchanok’s country?….This is a third level question.
That’s a lot of money. But, many people bring much money for traveling to Bangkok. Waaw.…I’m really tacky. But swear….USD 740 are very much for me.
It will be memorable thing if it can be spent to stay at expensive hotel in Bangkok.
Yes, I finally stayed at Baiyoke Sky Hotel.
Baiyoke Sky Hotel is 309 meters in height and it be 7th highest hotel in the world. So it doesn’t matter if you must to spend USD 110 per night for staying here.
Model of 85 storey hotel. 
Its original building.
Baiyoke Sky Hotel located in Khet Ratchathewi (Khet means a district), Bangkok Province. Ratchathewi itself comes from name of an empress, namely Phra Nangchao Sukumalmarsri Phra Ratchathewi.
Besides having a Victory Monument as a landmark, Ratchathewi also has famous landmarks namely Baiyoke Sky Hotel which I am writing now.
This hotel is located in a famous area….Its name, Pratu Nam. It also has other well-known destination, namely Pratu Nam Market. You must visit it if you go to Bangkok.
The hotel itself has 2 main towers. Tower I is 151 meters high and is used for Baiyoke Suite Hotels. While Tower II is 309 meters high, it’s used for Baiyoke Sky Hotel
I paid USD 9 to airport taxi driver after he transferred me from Don Mueang International Airport to Baiyoke Sky Hotel.
Before entering hotel’s door, I observed busy trading activities in commercial shops which located on ground floor of Baiyoke Sky Hotel.
Entering ground floor lift, a queue is so long in front of it. I stood in a tail of queue.
Oh Donny….a bumpkin man. A doorman was approaching me, apparently He knew I had just taken queue behind.
He: “Excuse me, Sir….Do you want to stay in or just go to observation deck?”
Me: ” I want to stay sir ”
He: ” Oh Okay, sir … This queue is for observation deck only. You can use that to go to lobby
Me: ” Oh thank you sir “. Hi Donny, please read the instructions (my heart murmured). Then I began to move to other lift with few queue.
The lift finally drove me to lobby.
Finishing check-in process and get a access card. I immediately went to my room in upstair for a short break. There are three lift corridors on the floor where receptionist is located. The first corridor is used to go to exit door on ground floor. The second and third corridors are used specifically for guests towards their rooms and several interesting places in hotel, such as Baiyoke Floating Market, Bangkok Sky, Observation Deck, Stella Palace, Bangkok Balcony, Crystal Grill and Roof Top Bar.
I finally entered my room.
Soft mattress 
I didn’t have a guest.…
It was just a little backpack.… 
Took a bath in bath-up every morning and afternoon.
For meals, I didn’t need to eat a toast as usual. Because it’snt dormitory.…keep calm, Donny.
Ate as much as you want….
Appetizer, main course, dessert everyday 
Bread and various jams.…made me confused.
Besides that, you can also eat in a floating market concept. In this case, It’s no water in 75th floor where floating market is located. All buffets are in a boat style and there are traders at each boat.
Because of second tallest building in Bangkok, it will be very disadvantage if you don’t enjoy Bangkok from 360-degree revolving viewpoint in top floor of Tower II.
Scenery fare is about USD 14,8 for public. This time, I can enjoy it for free as a guest guest.
On first night, I went late and 360-degree revolving viewpoint on 84th floor of Baiyoke Sky Tower had stopped spinning. I wasn’t long at revolving roof deck and I decided to get off. I only get this:
There were also champion photos of Baiyoke Run Up International (running race up stairs to top of Baiyoke Sky Tower).
I was able to get view of 360 degree-Bangkok view on second night. The 360-degree revolving point made me stunned when saw beauty of Bangkok at night.

there are many more statues in mini museum.
