Guess The Location Of This Picture

[Boksida]

Lets have a real challenge. Where is this?

Looks like the 22 July Circle

[sorensen]

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?

That one looks like Wongwian Yai but I still think the original picture is the 22 July Circle.

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.....

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?

Is it the Erawan Shrine, now located at the Hyatt Erawan?

Yep, must be 22 July Circle and The Erawan Shrine is correctly at the Grand Hyatt now.

I'm going to say Khao Sarn Road, which I know is wrong, but it's an attempt to keep this thread going as I like the idea.

Good luck, sorensen

Since 2long likes Khao Sarn Road so much, let have a look at it in the past.

Well it's a good picture of Ratchadamnoen Avenue anyway.

Good thread Sorensen, keep it up mate.

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).

Chiang Mai.

Chiang Mai.

btw, is that you running away from the accident Sorensen?

[sorensen]

Nope, it is not Chiang Mai. Another picture from the same city:

Unless you've been there - impossible to work out. I've just spent five minutes trying to read all the shop signs & there is no readable clue!

[sorensen]

Maybe somebody will recognize this:

[midasthailand]

The last shot taken in 1973, could be anywhere, I'll hazard a guess... Kanchanaburi? Love the thread by the way.

[soundman]

Udon Thani.

[sorensen]

Udon Thani.

BINGO we got a winner. Udon Thani 1973. Not far from the Airbase.

[bkkjames]

Maybe somebody will recognize this:

I would guess Pattaya but it looks too clean and sophisticated.

[bkkjames]

This place is in Bangkok, but where?

[sorensen]

Udon Thani.

BINGO we got a winner. Udon Thani 1973. Not far from the Airbase.

Here is a picture of the US radar station, Camp Ramasun Station in Udon Thani.

[Boksida]

The second picture looks like it was a town with a US military base. In the northeast?

Sorry, posted too late

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.

[sorensen]

Here is an easy one. What is the name of the building under construction?
