Rimmer Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 Palm tree park coming to Bali Hai PATTAYA:--Nong Nooch Tropical Garden will bring the magical touch it placed on Jomtien Beach’s facelift to the renovation of Bali Hai Pier. Deputy Mayor Pattana Boonsawad surveyed vacant public land with Nong Nooch Director Kampol Tansajja ahead of plans to turn it into a garden that will serve as a waiting area for Bali Hai and a park to attract tourists. Kampol said the area is suitable for the sugar palms lining Pattaya Beach. The trees can grow in salty soil and are strong enough to hold up to strong winds. He said 78 sugar palms will be planted, giving it a similar look to Phuket’s Phomthep Pier viewpoint. -- PATTAYA MAIL 2020-01-29— https://www.pattayamail.com/news/palm-tree-park-coming-to-bali-hai-285923 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johng Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 its gonna be quite a small park by the looks of it. I thought the restaurant that was there had "proper" land titles..there where news items about the court case. Now the sign says public property.

They did a great job at The Chelsea Flower Show too I hear. I am told that Nong Nooch is showing off lots of pics of the owner with Queen Elizabeth.

I've got to disagree with you there. I was sorely disappointed when I went to Nong Nooch expecting to see a really well presented tropical botanical garden a la Chelsea Flower Show awards. I'm guessing all the plastic dinasaurs, red telephone boxes and other man made monstrosities weren't part of that award winning display. Shocking commercial mass tourist money making tat that a public park in Singapore puts to shame. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does that thing even work? Yeah worked for the contrators who probably received new mercs out of the deal but the actually parking garage is a broken down empty building.
