Hey i was in Chiang Mai a few months ago and loved going to the airport plaza. I saw they were building a new extension, and i was interested in what they were building at the time, but have been away from Thailand since June. Just thought about it this morning for some reason and wondered if it ever got finished?

I think its an extension of the car park. Sorry to be the bearer of disappointing news.

ANOTHER extension? Geez, I going to need a GPS just to find my way around in there. Last time I had to bring a sleeping bag because I couldn't find my way out. I started counting shops and finally gave up when I reached a thousand. 994 were dedicated to women shoppers and the 6 shops that had men's stuff had female staff.

we were told it is an extension for the northern village that is based inside the old building at the moment

It's a Convention Centre to compete with the new one behind the Grandview Hotel and the complex out near the 700 Year Stadium not to mention the existing hotel facilities and the huge, seldom used halls out at Ratchapreuk.

Why have one more when you can completely saturate the market with an extra three?

That is what I had heard roughly as well. Also to be used for concerts.

greenside has it right with all his comments .

It's yet another Convention Centre to be empty most of the time i expect

this is what it looked like on 1 oct ... today ?

It'll be a massive bar, gogo, massage and entertainment complex to rival the ones in Bangkok and Singapore.

Will finally put Chiang Mai on the map. Pandas just don't cut it.

Reckon they should make it into a home depot store that has a floor dedicated to Tiger beer... can never have enough of either.

NOW we are talkin! For that it might be worth while having my sleeping bag for an improptu sleep over.

One can always dream..

The word on the street is that it`s part of Sausage Kings new expansion project.
