In pictures: Despite a thick haze, tourists showed up at the Mahanakhon Building on Wednesday (Feb 1) to observe the Bangkok skyline
BANGKOK: At 314m above the ground, the outdoor observation deck atop the King Power Mahanakhon Building in central Bangkok presents a commanding view of Thailand's capital.
On Wednesday evening Bangkok came eighth in IQAir's city pollution rankings, which compares 101 global cities worldwide with measured PM2.5 data. Yet the polluted Bangkok air failed to deter the many tourists seen posing on the transparent glass floor of the Mahanakhon Skywalk observation deck, up on the 78th storey.“It’s a crazy experience in my life,” said Jinho Kim from South Korea.
Vulnerable groups such as young children, pregnant women and the elderly were advised to avoid outdoor activities or wear face masks capable of filtering out PM2.5.
