Unfortunately, Thais very often just destroy what isn't good enough anymore.

One of the reasons why there's not many beautiful old buildings remaining.

I especially love the old wooden houses, of which I add a single pic here (Color pic processed with Lightroom)

More will follow as soon as I have time to shoot some...

Well, where i live most the old houses got destroyed by termites but well, I love the old houses too. Too bad not everyone can afford to build with teak.

Taken with Lumix G2 then messed around with border in camera bag (Mac)

I have collected several old wooden house shots from my mountain bike rides around Phaya Mengrai in Chiang Rai. They truly are a vanishing relic of the past.

Can't imagine having to put up with the noise of the rain on a tin roof for months on end during the rainy season.

This place must be a sauna, no wonder they are all sitting under the house.

@ Villagefarang: That's exactly what I meant, vanishing relics. Great pictures!

Just a reminder that photos must be Thailand related............................

Here's another two pics (made in Thailand ;-)

Stiggy, How did you frame it? looks great.

i rarely prefer the black and white, but in this case i like it better

In a little village on Samui ... always hard to tell how old some houses are!

Along one of the many back roads of Samui this morning! Many places like this! (farm houses)

Sorry about the big gap here, can't seem to correct it!

Another old house ready to collapse! Ban Khaw, Songkhla Province.

More and more houses are now being built with concrete these days!

Phayao

No info who owned it or when it was last lived in.

This a classic looking place, on the coast road some where, between Ranot and Nakon Si Tamarat...

Air conditioned !!!

Houses for farm workers.... in Songkhla...

Sorry about the bit of glare in the top of pic!

Another old resort on Samui ..... this sort of has a weird airy feeling in the right light..... It has been looking like this for months, seems to be a hold up on new funds to make yet another 5 star resort!

Back to the old method of uploading .... sure hope this works better for everyone It took me a while to remember how to do it!

Old abandoned coconut farm house on Koh Phangan (Centre Road)

That's an old large satellite dish toward the front roof!
