As I was taking the photo of the Consul, a guy about 35 appeared he, looked surprised at me taking the photo, anyway  he said the car was his dads  he died some years ago, they business is a recycling center, he said the car had not been used a good few years before he died .

Two of Fords finest, the Consul still has the engine and gearbox.

Taken not far from one another, in Central Lopburi.

Was up in Chiang Rai about 7 years ago and saw an old Ford Consul Classic 315 which was still in use (built around 1961-63?) and had thoughts about stopping to see if it was for sale. Then sanity prevailed...……..spare parts, reliability etc.

 

Also saw an original Honda 250cc m/c which was still in use. Who said those Japanese "sewing machines" wouldn't last!

Khon Kaen - Hyunday dealer , but on the left side it's an abandonned building

 

Abandoned discotheque in Petchaburi, full series & info here.

Left side of  road 22 between Nong Han and Sawang Daen Din

 

Spirit House

Home for retired police motorbikes.

Pattananikom Police station, Lopburi.

Some of the bikes sized by the police, same place.

ex communist camp in Phu Hin Rong Kla national park

 

 

Just outside a village on a red road 

 

 

House now in a sugar cane field, and they forgot to bring the washing in.

Old broken boat from Tsunami 2004

A funny  lost place in the highlands of samui with famous view

A few years ago this resort was very popular, now all bungalows and the restaurant broken

Bad abandoned bar in paradise with much trash behind the bar. They had a wonderful place in the nature, but not takecare the nature :-(

It was difficult to find the way to this cave, named kraduke cave. 30 min over a mountain with broken stairs  and a small path goes there.

Wandered by the old customs house again. "No Photo" signs around. However, it appears the guard hasn't read them!

 

Surathani province: Until a few years ago, almost nobody knew this wonderful place because it is only accessible via an unmarked little jungle road. Now the  authorities want to make this place also accessible to tourists

This building' can be seen along highway nr 3395 about 20 km outside of Sa Kaeo. No idea why it was built or wherefore it was ever used (or intended to be used). Did also not notice any road towards the place.  There is no village / city in the near vicinity.

Looks worth a wander over.

 

Looking again at google maps, it must be road 3462. Sorry for the misinformation.

Abandoned hotel in the north

I think it's on the side of the road n* 118 between Doi Saket and Wiang Pa Pao and it's not an abandonned hotel but it's a replica of a Khmer temple ;  it's next to the hot springs .

Maybe I'm wrong but I passed there many times from 2007 to last year ( 2017 ) ..and never saw an indication of an hotel ,  โรงแรม in thai .

I dont think that is the same place .

That "Temple" that you are talking about never got finished and you can still see the red meta bars from the infrastructure and that place has lots of mold on it .

  I can understand them wanting to build a tourist attraction , next to the hot spring , but who would want to go and see a newly built "ruin" with ho history behind it  .

   Anyway , I dont think that thats the same building as in the photo above

Yup, you are right there Assurancetourix.

I stopped at the springs ( for an egg [emoji51]) and remember the Temple.

Was on a road trip ( Chiang Mai, Chiang Rai ) a couple of years ago, stayed in a resort about 1 km down the road , Phu Fa Thara resort ( don’t recommend ).

Here’s a photo, courtesy of Google maps, I didn’t take any of the temple only the hot spring.

A beautiful place on the lao border-mountains with a old borderstone. On the rigth laos, left thailand.

The other 2 pics is a broken abandoned hotel on the way to the border.
