Why there is no 13 floor?

[ColeBOzbourne]

And all this time I thought my building doesn't have a 13th floor because it's only 10 stories tall. Now I know.

Almost every condo in bangkok i have seen they don't have 13 floor any idea why not?

Read the New Testament, the part about the last supper – 13 is an extremely unlucky number, like there is no row 13 in an airplane, or room number 13 in most hotels.

     True about the Chinese and number 4.  If you notice, in Pattaya, there are highrises View Talay 1, 2, 3A, 3B, 5C, 5D, 6, 7, and 8.  But no View Talay 4 highrise.  The first and last condos my spouse and I owned did have floor 13s--we lived on floor 13 in the first one.  Likely some of the others also had floor 13s, too, but I can't remember.

We have a ground floor (parterre) and the 1st, second and so on. Whilst in the States the ground floor is 1st. floor. So you never really know what floor you on unless you know the builder.

It means "Sea". View Talay Condo means Seaview Condo
