sorensen Posted October 30, 2009 Author Share Posted October 30, 2009 This one nearly impossible to find ! It is not that hard, but I will give you a few up-to-date pictures of the same roundabout. Now, where is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was looking for Wong Wian Yai at the Thonburi side, but you could be right, so lets quickly move on to the next one.....

sorensen Posted October 30, 2009 Author Share Posted October 30, 2009 You have most likely seen this statue before and passed by it a million times, if you live in Bangkok. Where is it located now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it the Erawan Shrine, now located at the Hyatt Erawan? Picture below 22 July Circle with the distinctive 6 way intersection: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sorensen Posted October 30, 2009 Author Share Posted October 30, 2009 The next one is mission impossible, unless of course you have been there before. The year is 1973 and we are way outside Bangkok. What city? (more hints will follow). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but the photo as shown from the 1930's when it was known as the Royal Hotel, was before it became the Russian Embassy (1950's) - prior to that is was the home of a certain Mr. Sathorn. In two years time, it will be part of the the W Hotel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
