Last year I'm driving around on darkside of Pattaya and found working in progress of a copy of Angkor Wat. A lot of concrete was involved.

Now, yesterday I was there again ... found the place nearly finished (for Thai understanding), but abandoned.

Looks like a high end theme Spa/Resort.

Millions (Baht) are wasted here.

Anyone with background information ?

wow, interesting place. looks like pure luxury.

 

a few scenarios I can think of:

- superstitious owner and ghost sightings

- owner dead or in prison

The water in the pool looks pretty good. Are you sure you weren't just trespassing?......

wow...I am surprised there are no squatters ! A few years back I was walking along the San Saeb near Bang Kapi Mall and noticed the complete shell of a Jetliner in the adjacent field. I went to investigate but quickly backed off as I realized there were people living in the plane and more than likely would not welcome a Sunday morning visit from a farang looking for Instagram fodder.

I live on the darkside, never seen or heard of it. Where is it exactly?

Probably now owner by the bank, but they don't know about it yet! I'm surprised they haven't torched it for insurance money!

I'm always exploring my surroundings .. just living was all the time not enough for me :-)

Sure this is the darkside? None of those roads are familiar to me.

Sure, in Pattaya, everything beyond Sukhumvit is darkside :-)

Not sure that's true. I wouldn't call the Hoi Yai area the darkside, or Buddha mountain. So can you be a bit more specific as to where this resort is?

Did you see the map I posted before ?

Sorry about using a wrong term in this case.

Does not seem abandoned for long time.

You still haven't given clear directions as to where this place is. I see a map, but have no idea where those roads are.

The famous Soi Lung Doi ghost resort. Once you have enter, your soul will be consumed by the ghost during the next full moon. Sleep tight.

Not to worry, no one can find it. It's location is a closely guarded secret by the OP, unless you can decipher his somewhat vague map.

Does not seem abandoned at all to me...

A not maintained swimming pool turns very quickly green and dirty on this climate.

Abandoned with all the bedding and furniture still there, don't think so.

indeed... maybe it's guerilla marketing

The map provided by the OP doesn't help at all - only two roads are named and neither of them can be found on Google Maps, nor Garmin GPS, or Tom Tom.

 

The only "Wang Hin" I can find is Wat Wang Hin near Sri Ratcha/Lam Chabang.

Doi is the Northern word for mountain. There are no "Dois" on the dark side.

For some people there is no world beyond Google ;-)

Helpless when off ...

My provided map it's clear marked with "here" ... obviously unknown ... for the Google boys :-)

Now I remember this place.  I've driven by it a few times and wondered what it was.  I'll try to take a drive by in the next few days with an update.  Looks really interesting.

 

Bing maps.  LOL.  I think the problem was I was searching in the dark side for that road.  It's actually Huay Yai area.  I know that area well! LOL

If you hadn't confused everyone with the Darkside refererence.....

Not abandoned and not dark side.

 

Thanks for playing!

Drove around it this afternoon, It's tucked away in a dead end loop north of Phoenix Golf course and south of Hue Yai Road, many workers there today building new statues and renovating existing structures. The architecture and statues are not Thai, maybe Balanese.

You were faster

It's also covered on Google maps with tons of photos:

And the photos claim to be captured in 2017?

 

There is also a link to a "Phananresort" website with some confusing info and template texts?

(map pointer to North Vietnam )

Strange.

It's south of what most call "darkside" in the Hua Yai area.

 

 

Here is three pictures of work being done on the resort, taken yesterday
