Here we are Mahanakhon
Skywalk at 310 meters high, with glass flooring extending over the edge of King
Power Mahanakhon, Thailand’s tallest building.
There is an indoor
observation deck, an outdoor rooftop bar, and “The Peak,” Bangkok’s highest
viewpoint at 314 meters high.
There are three levels to the Mahanakhon experience. We went through the ticket booth and security, and proceeded to the
“Bangkok-themed” corridor. Thereafter we were directed to the video-themed
elevator that takes you up straight to the 74th floor, our first viewpoint.
Another glass elevator took us to the rooftop floor,
home to what is now Thailand’s highest bar and glass skywalk. We headed immediately
to the skywalk. Was it scary? I personally did not feel the terrifying thrill. It
felt more a media hype. Some may feel that once your feet lie on the glass, it
has that plummeting to your death experience, especially when you are afraid of
heights and look down from where you are at the glass tray. Many tourist were comfortable
lying and crawling on the glass.
Visitors must wear provided slippers over their shoes
before stepping in the glass tray. Cameras or any equipment are not allowed in
the glass tray, and photos can only be taken from the outside.
The third level is the 360-degree viewpoint at
314-meter height.
