Bangkok's Ghost Tower
Architects of a luxurious skyscraper in Bangkok may well not have foreseen their creation being dubbed the Ghost Tower, after the 1997 Asian Financial Crisis stymied construction of the upscale apartment block.
The abandoned 49-storey building, known as Sathorn Unique, now attracts visitors who clamber on its graffiti-covered skeleton. The climbers are rewarded by views of the Thai capital’s skyline and ferryboats passing on the nearby Chao Phraya River.
