The Thai name of this structure

Featured Replies

Hello,

I am trying to identify the Thai name of the structure presented in this post image. Can you please help?

What would be the cost for something like that?

Sala. Cost can be from cheap (straw roof) to expensive. You can afford get them ready made all over the place.

It's a massage hall.

Or like cooked said, sala, or even lanna perhaps?

Is that in Japan?

No this is not Japan, this is Koh Pah Ngan (Koh Samui)

Thank you guys for trying to help, but I would like to know the corespondent Thai name to the Eghlish: Shed, Shack, Hut, etc

You've already been told twice, it's a sala (sǎaˑ​laa).

A sala is an open-sided pavillion.

Yes, good comment, reminded me that all pavillons are open sided, otherwise they aren't pavillons. (eh?)

Not necessarily. Cricket pavillions are usually enclosed.

You might add "gazebo" to your list of English synonyms for sala.

I could build that for under 4000 baht.

I think there is nothing much better than "sala".

I find lots of occurences of ศาลานวด (sala nuad), massage pavillion.

One example of a ศาลานวด:

Thais might refer to this as ปะรำ , although this often is a temporary structure.

ปะรำ is always a temporary structure. It's usually translated into English as "marquee".

Dictionary definition: สิ่งปลูกสร้างชั่วคราว มีเสา หลังคาแบนดาดด้วยผ้าหรือใบไม้

Yep, more like a (party) tent or the like.

Not sure about the Thai name but in English its called a Hovel

Let's move this to Thai language forum rather than delete useful Thai language posts.

Where about are you? Are you a professioal builder?

Does your quoted price included the material (bambo) as well?
